Diamond Dyke
by George Manville Fenn
Publisher: W. & R. Chambers 1895
Number of pages: 369
Description:
A most authentic seeming book about the difficulties a pair of young Britons faced when they went to South Africa, and set up an ostrich farm in the dry and largely empty veldt. They had a married couple of the locals to help them, and of these the man wasn’t much use. They also had a most sagacious dog, who figures largely in the story. One of the enemies they had to face was lions.
