Kruger's Pretoria: Buildings and Personalities of the City in the Nineteenth CenturyThis fascinating book, originally published in 1971, had it origins in daily journalism: a series of feature articles for the Pretoria News written between 1968 and 1970. Since then much has changed and that era now seems as remote as Kruger's did in 1970. |
