Green (Lawrence) KAROO 248pp. Hardcover with original DW. Illustrated maps on end-papers. Colour
248pp. Hardcover with original DW. Illustrated maps on end-papers. Colour frontis of herders with sheep. Full page B/W photos and illustrations.
Cellophane protected DW. Previous owner's name penned to front paste-down. Front free EP verso has a scratched-over inscription. Some age-toning to margins. Otherwise a very good copy indeed.
The story of the Karoos of South Africa - the Great Karoo, the Little Karoo and the far corners of the North West Cape and Namaqualand. A highly readable account of these areas with their charming old villages and dramatic arid landscapes.
'Karoo' is arguably one of Lawrence Green's most popular books. First editions, particularly with good original dust-jackets are now becoming increasingly scarce and sought after keepsakes.
