About This Item
(Grahamstown: Institute of Social and Economic Research, Rhodes University, 1965). Occasional Paper Number Eight. 233 x 155 mm; card wrappers; pp. (xii) + 184; frontis.; tables; graphs. Wrappers lightly sunned. Very good condition. "In South Africa, some studies have been made of people living in rural areas, and something is known about our important cities. However, the small towns dotted along the coastal belt, and more sparsely inland across the face of the country, have been scarcely touched by the social scientist. This study concerns one of these small towns, and throws light on certain aspects of life in such a community. The town chosen for examination was King William's Town, in the Border region of the Cape Province. Dating back over a century and more to the days of the old British Kaffraria, the town has existed long enough to build up an apparently stable population with its own way of life." .
