Bush Life: Or A Woman�������s Adventures Among The Caffres is a book written by Mrs. Fenton Aylmer in 1862. The book is a memoir of the author's experiences living in South Africa during the mid-19th century. Mrs. Aylmer's husband was a British colonial administrator, and the couple lived among the Xhosa people in what is now the Eastern Cape province of South Africa. The book is divided into chapters that describe different aspects of Mrs. Aylmer's life in South Africa. She writes about her encounters with wildlife, including lions and elephants, as well as her interactions with the local people. The book provides a detailed account of the Xhosa culture and traditions, including their beliefs and customs. Mrs. Aylmer also writes about the challenges she faced living in a remote area without many of the comforts of civilization. She describes the difficulties of finding food and water, as well as the dangers posed by disease and hostile tribes. Despite these challenges, Mrs. Aylmer writes about the beauty of the South African landscape and the kindness of the people she met. Overall, Bush Life: Or A Woman�������s Adventures Among The Caffres is a fascinating account of life in colonial South Africa. It provides a unique glimpse into a world that has long since vanished, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
