The Sunshine Settlers
by Garstin, Crosbie
- Used
- Hardcover
(Bulawayo: Books of Rhodesia, 1971). Crown 8vo; original blue cloth, lettered in gilt on spine and upper cover; pictorial dustwrapper; pp. vii + (i) + 240. Dustwrapper very slightly rubbed, and sunned on spine panel; spine and portion of top edges slightly faded; trace of foxing to edges and endpapers; old price penned on front free endpaper. Good to very good condition. "Mr. Crosbie Garstin has written a book of genuine open-air humour whose unforced gaiety will keep you amused from the first page to the last. The settlement is South Africa and the time immediately before the War which indeed breaks out in the final chapters and enables the three chief characters to carry their good spirits to Flanders. But it is their life in Africa that takes up the greater part of the book - the flora and fauna of their surroundings, their servants, pets, sports (including donkey polo), and adventures generally." .
