Although perhaps better known for his accounts of China and the Arctic, this is Barrow's first travel book. He went to the Cape of Good Hope as private secretary to Lord Macartney. " He traversed every part of the colony, and visited the several countries of the Keffirs, the Hottentots, and the Bosjesmen, performing " a journey exceeding one thousand miles on horseback, on foot, and very rarely in a covered wagon, and full half the distance as a pedestrian, and never except for a few nights sleeping under a roof " "--abebooks website.
