Seven Years in South Africa V2 is a travelogue written by Emile Holub detailing his experiences and adventures during his seven-year stay in South Africa between 1872 and 1879. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different aspect of his travels, research, and hunting adventures.Holub's travels took him across the length and breadth of South Africa, from the diamond fields in the west to the Zambesi River in the east. Along the way, he encountered a diverse range of people and cultures, including the Boers, the Zulus, and the Makololo.Holub's research interests were varied, and he spent a great deal of time studying the flora and fauna of the region. He also conducted research into the customs and traditions of the various tribes he encountered, and his observations provide a valuable insight into the cultural practices of the time.As an avid hunter, Holub also recounts his many hunting adventures in the book. He pursued a wide variety of game, including elephants, lions, and rhinoceroses, and his descriptions of the hunts are both thrilling and informative.Overall, Seven Years in South Africa V2 is a fascinating account of a bygone era in African history, and it provides a valuable glimpse into the lives and experiences of those who lived and worked in the region during the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
