Description
This book makes no claim to be an archival chronicle of the history of False Bay; perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a domestic chronicle for, though it has necessarily an historical basis, I have tried to give, as well as dates and data, a picture of how people have lived along the shores of the bay during the past 300 years and more, of the conditions under which they lived, their trials and rejoicings, the changes in their environment and in their manner of living as the years have gone by. All this will, I hope, add some flesh to the bones of history.
