Landor was an adventurer and explorer who spent several years living among the Bushmen, a group of indigenous people who were often marginalized and mistreated by colonial powers. The book provides a detailed account of Landor's interactions with the Bushmen and his observations of their way of life. He describes their hunting techniques, their customs and beliefs, and their struggles to survive in a changing world. Landor also explores the natural environment of Southern Africa, including its wildlife and geography, and provides insights into the political and social climate of the region at the time.Throughout the book, Landor reflects on the complex relationship between the Bushmen and the European settlers who were rapidly colonizing the area. He acknowledges the harm that was done to the Bushmen and their culture by colonialism, but also recognizes the resilience and strength of the people he encountered.Overall, The Bushman is a fascinating and informative account of a unique time and place in history, as well as a tribute to the resilience and humanity of the Bushmen people.Dreadful was the scene; the furious donkeys nearing and striking with their fore-feet, and biting each other about the head and neck without the smallest feeling of compunction or remorse; the two guides shrieking and swearing in Portuguese at the donkeys and each other, and striking right and left with their long staves, perfectly indifferent as to whom they hit; the unhappy riders, furious with fright and chagrin, shouting in English to the belligerents of both classes to \"\"keep off!\"\"This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
