Incwadi Yami; or, Twenty years' personal experience in South Africa
Incwadi Yami is a memoir by J. W. Matthews, published in London in 1887 by S. Low, Marston, Searle & Rivington, recounting twenty years of personal experience in South Africa, with a focus on diamond mines and mining. The pictures are rotated line engravings of mining camps, tents, and wagons on open veld, with a decorative scrollwork tailpiece, and a designer might take from them the layered look of crowded frontier settlements and the clean hatching of nineteenth-century reportage illustration.
