VINNICOMBE'S TREK: A Family Chronicle of the Time of the Zulu and Boer Wars by R.N. Currey

£12.50 Sale

A family memoir against the background of early Natal, the Anglo-Zulu and Anglo-Boer Wars. Largely the story of Tom Vinnicombe, who as a member of the Frontier Light Horse distinguished himself at the battle of Hlobane, giving up his horse to two other unhorsed men on the grounds that he was a good runner, and could escape on foot! Since he did, he must have been! Hardback, page edges spotted, cover a little grubby, otherwise good condition.
