Thomas Pakenham The Boer War & The Scramble for Africa

MUST GO. Heading to the charity shop this weekend if no one interested.

Two classic works of African and imperial history by Thomas Pakenham:

-The Boer War
- The Scramble for Africa

The Scramble for Africa is in excellent / near-perfect condition. I read this one in paperback and bought the hardback to add to my collection.

The Boer War is also very clean with all pages present and intact, but the binding is beginning to fail, so this is reflected in the price. (see pictures 2+3)

Both are substantial, highly regarded works by Pakenham, an Anglo-Irish historian associated with Tullynally Castle in Co. Westmeath. He is also a lifelong tree enthusiast and has written extensively about remarkable and historic trees.

Both hardbacks with dust covers. No writing, highlighting or other marks.

Ideal for anyone interested in African history, British Empire, colonial history, South Africa or the Boer War.
