Description
This historical saga recounts the lives, loves, troubles and turmoil of the Van der Bijl family that settled in the Cape of Good Hope in 1660 when the Dutch East India Company first established a trading post in the remote southern corner of the African continent.
The Van der Bijl family was a prominent, wealthy clan who established some of the still famous vineyards in the Cape. This work of fiction follows the first seven generations of Van der Bijls in South Africa and is a fascinating look at the challenges faced by a fledgling colony at the tip of Africa.
Christine Price, never afraid of controversy, has laid bare the prejudices and hypocrisy of the colonists in this frank, well-researched novel as it traces a family's journey through time.
