In its original dust jacket, lightly bumped at head of a slightly sunned spine. de Vylder was a Swedish naturalist who, after years in Cape Town, journeyed to present day Namibia between 1873 and 1875, collecting insects and other natural history specimens. His journey was made when European presence was slightly - before the German Colonial Occupation and his journal is a record of an adventure, personal encounters and conditions in what was then considered to a remote region. He was a man of his age, with advanced and provocative views, which shine through his journals.
