Hardcover. Zustand: New. The scope of the book is large, and therefore, of necessity, the book provides only an overview of the evolution of the mails of the Rhodesias and Nyasaland in the period from colonial rule to majority rule. The available information from primary sources is sometimes incomplete, and therefore, both published and unpublished research by previous authors has also been taken into account. Hopefully it will provide much information that is of use to the majority of collectors of the postal history of the region. Postal history purists, with some justification, feel that only commercial mail constitutes postal history. However, the milestones commemorated by especially contrived First Day and First Flight covers and other special event covers, do highlight these special events, and will be used to do so in this work.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. xii + 572 pages, illustrations : 29 cm. This is the second major philatelic book by the author, the first being on the Edwardians of the four provinces which, in 1910, merged to form the Union; that book was a natural and fitting sequel to the marvellous book by John Easton on the De La Rue commonwealth stamps up to 1900, and this latest book is of the same high standard. In 16 sections it covers, as the title states, the routes, rates and regulations of letters and postcards of southern Africa from the chaos and uncertainty of 1806 to the relative stability of 1916. The geographical coverage is southern Africa, as far north as the Rhodesias and Mozambique, but excluding Angola.
