This rare and beautiful two volume set comes complete with 12 large plates illustrating the Bushman / San rock art in the Brandberg area of South Africa.

I have kept good care of these volumes which show only minor scuffing on the covers..... otherwise the work is in excellent condition. The work is written in English.
