In 1820 John Bailie, a member of an Anglo-Irish landowning family
and former lieutenant in the Royal Navy, led a large party of
British immigrants to South Africa as part of a group later to be
known as the 1820 Settlers. His party soon dissolved, but Bailie
became extensively involved not only in the affairs of the Eastern
Cape, but also those of the Transorange in the early stages of
European settlement, and the colony of Natal.
This biography of John Bailie and his family, based on the
extensive research of Mrs M.D. Nash, an authority on the British
Settlers, tells the story of an adventurous life inextricably
linked with the colonial history of South Africa during the first
half of the nineteenth century. The present volume, the second of
three, deals more specifically with the manner in which the
settlers adjusted to their new environment.
