A very good copy. "The diamond jubilee of the publication of that ever-young story Jock of the Bushveld fell in 1967. ... Little has been published about the details of how the story came to be written, or of the artist, Edmund Caldwell, who drew the superb illustrations which have done so much to embellish the great story. The author's daughter, Cecily, has remedied this deficiency, and this volume is published as a commemoration of the sixtieth anniversary of the first publication of Jock's story, to give the background of the well-loved book."
