Bag om The Outspan

The Outspan: Tales of South Africa is a collection of short stories by Percy Fitzpatrick, originally published in 1897. The book is set in South Africa during the late 19th century and features tales of adventure, romance, and the struggles of everyday life in a rapidly changing society. The stories are told from the perspective of a white colonial settler and provide a glimpse into the attitudes and beliefs of the time. The characters include hunters, farmers, and indigenous people, and the stories explore themes such as race, class, and the clash of cultures. Fitzpatrick is best known for his novel Jock of the Bushveld, and The Outspan is a lesser-known but equally compelling work that offers a unique perspective on the history and culture of South Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
