I would certainly be interested in a CD of:

5. A Hunting Expedition to the Transvaal - D. Fernandes das Neves 1987
reprint of 1879 original - 280 pp., 5 photos, map showing inhabitants
of Schoemansdal a year or two before it was abandoned - Gen and historical

Please advise when the CD could be ready

Regards

Ian Dreyer

Hi List,

Rather than risking my books over the mail to the USA, I have decided
to produce my own reproductions on CD. If any-one think that this
is an easy way of making money, first try it, then comment again.

I have finished books no. 1 in *.pdf format and would like
to know if there is any interest.
Initially books will be vailable on CD-R (writable CD).
If there are enough orders books will go on CD.
The price will be R90-R100 ($8-$10) plus postage.

Please indicate which books you are interested in.
Where possible, would you prefer to download the pdf file or get a CD?
If you would like a translated version of a Dutch book, please say so.

The books I have available:

> 1 Ou Pretoria - Dr. Gustav S. Preller - 1938 --- 84 pp. no photos
> Old Pretoria - Dr Gustav S. Preller - 1938 --- 78 pp. no photos
>
> 2 Schetsen uit Zuid Afrika - E. Kretzschmar - 1854 --- 130 pp. no
photos
> (Pen)-Shetches from South Africa - Dutch only! will be translated if
