[Source - Benathi Marufu for FHYA, 2022, using Historical Publications Southern Africa website: Henry Lichtenstein was a German doctor who travelled widely through the Cape, commenting on the landscape, economy and people whom he encountered. His first journey, in the western and northern parts of the colony, took him to Saldanha Bay, the Bokkeveld and into the Great Karroo. From there he visited Swellendam and travelled along the southern coast to Algoa Bay. The first volume concludes with his encounter with African people as far east as the Fish River. An appendix discusses the Xhosa language. In the second volume Lichtenstein returned to Cape Town via Graaff Reinet and the Karroo. Subsequently he went back to the Swellendam district. His last journey took him north to Kuruman where he encountered the Koranna and the Bechuana. An appendix discusses the language of the 'wild Hottentot tribes'.]
