DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Rip Van Winkle of the Kalahari and Other Tales of South-West Africa most of these stories were written on the veldt; at odd times, in out-of-the-way prospecting camps, in the wilds of the Kalahari Deser, or of that equally little-known borderland between Klein Namaqualand, and Gordonia, Cape Colony, and what was at that time known as German South-West Africa. Four of them appeared a few years back in The State - an illustrated magazine now unhappily defunct: the others, though written about the same time, have never been published. And now, time and circumstances have combined to bring the scene in which they are laid most prominently before the public.
