""Six Months at the Cape"" by R.M. Ballantyne is a travelogue that documents the author's journey to South Africa in the mid-19th century. The book provides a detailed account of his six-month stay in Cape Town and the surrounding areas, including his experiences with the local people and wildlife. Ballantyne describes the geography and climate of the region, as well as the history and culture of the indigenous people. He also shares his observations on the political and social climate of the time, including the ongoing conflict between the British colonial government and the Boer settlers. Throughout the book, Ballantyne provides vivid descriptions of his adventures, including hunting expeditions and encounters with wild animals like lions and elephants. ""Six Months at the Cape"" offers a fascinating glimpse into life in South Africa during a pivotal period in its history.Our cart had a hood; the roads were very bad, and the behaviour of that hood was stupendous! Its attachment to the cart was, so to speak, partial; therefore it possessed a semi-independent motion which was perplexing. You could not count on its actions. A sudden lurch of the cart to right or left did, of course, carry the hood with it, and, counting on that, you laid your sudden plans to avoid collision; but the elasticity of the hood enabled it to give you a slap on the face before obeying its proper impulse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
