Excerpt from A Trip to South AfricaIN the following pages Mr. Salter-whiter has described his recent visit to the Cape in a manner that cannot but be of value.Starting from his own home he describes each incident of the journey, and points out the evils to be avoided and the advantages to be secured. He sees clearly the dangers of the coast land at the Cape and the remarkable virtue of the Karoo district. He shews the value of sunshine, dry air, and elevation in securing arrest, even in cases of advanced disease, and in Chapter XV., on Health, ' he sketches out a route likely to be of essential service to many. The course pursued must vary in different cases, but the advantages of beginning with Wynberg, then going to Ceres, Matjesfontein, and Bloemfontein are clearly exhibited.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
