Some vintage books, I just can't fold or cut up. This book: The Kruger Park and Other National Parks by RJ Labuschagne is one of them.
Published in 1968, beside documenting the animals in the Parks, it is such a lovely comment on South African Society at the time. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijZJypgEPNnMli7Jap87oIJ5Juk7YZc1iswxzKzYiZWHwRuLDRd9XOWJaxqaQvj8eebnFPYmy-GJl-agoRo6FMjoNEPRXtx9CI5MryNpgs3yJKcFO9t-o7-FkkkcB69MUwaVC8FC39xKeW/s640/Kruger+Untitled-4.jpg)

I loved the article on the modern way of darting hippos for research. Driving a grader into the river was much safer than sending real live biologists in!
And the foreword to the book was written from The Prime Minister's Office - BJ Vorster himself!I love the official font!
