In the eight years from to , the colony at the Cape experienced three different regimes, pitched battle and conquest, burgher revolt and frontier war, naval mutiny and Khoikhoi rebellion.  These troubled times also produced an extraordinary crop of memorable people: Lord Macartney and General Francis Dundas, Lady Anne Barnard and John Barrow, Sir George Yonge and W.S. van Rijneveld, landdrost Maynier, Ngqika, and many more. This book is a synthesis of editorial text, documents and artworks, examining the era through eye-witness accounts, personal trade letters, government reports, contemporary maps,    A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers.

Minted at the Royal Mint in Great Britain. Reverse design features the popular Britannia image. Each 1 oz Silver Britannia coin has been struck with one troy ounce of.999 pure silver.
