What I Saw In Kaffir-Land (1880)

""What I Saw In Kaffir-Land"" is a travelogue written by Stephen Bartlet Lakeman in 1880. The book details Lakeman's journey through South Africa and his experiences with the Kaffir people, who were the indigenous people of the region. Lakeman provides a vivid description of the landscape, flora, and fauna of the region, as well as the customs and traditions of the Kaffir people. He also discusses the impact of colonialism and the conflicts between the British settlers and the Kaffir people. Lakeman's account offers a unique perspective on the history and culture of South Africa during the late 19th century. However, it is important to note that the term ""Kaffir"" is considered a derogatory term today and was commonly used during the colonial period to refer to the indigenous people of South Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
