(Curtis, 55) "This is the most lavish book so far undertaken or produced in South African fly fishing literature. In fact, very little has been published worldwide that comes even close to matching it. The photographs in the book, by husband and wife team Peter and Beverley Pickford, are breathtaking and must rank as some of the finest ever taken of our sport and of the countryside in which we pursue it. The text, written by well-known playwright, columnist and flyfisherman, Robert Brandon-Kirby, is on a par with the photographs: always interesting, often insightful and sometimes quite beautiful in its lyricism." - Paul Curtis, Fishing the Margins. A History and Complete Bibliography of Fly Fishing in South Africa.

"This is the first full-length biography, in any language, of the remarkable eighteenth-century soldier, scientist and explorer Robert Jacob Gordon (1743-1795). It examines his early life, his explorations in southern Africa, his military service at the Cape, and concludes with his tragic suicide after the surrender of the Cape to the British 1795. Though of Scottish descent, he was first and foremost a Dutchman, serving initially in the elite Scots Brigade and later with the Dutch East India Company, in whose service he rose to the rank of colonel and commanded the Cape garrison from 1780 to 1795. . Quoting extensively from his own translation of Gordon's papers and journals, as well as from numerous contemporary sources, the author skilfully reveals a man of discipline, integrity and humanity, whose resourceful and enquiring mind was indefatigable in its pursuit of knowledge.".
