Book excerpt: This collection of photographs is not a pictorial history of the Colony of Natal - it is essentially an entertainment; glimpses of the activities and events in the daily lives of ordinary people. While this book does not claim to be a pictorial history, photographs from the past are part of the historical record and, while some pictures are complete in what they depict, others need some background historical knowledge to be fully appreciated. Therefore the book provides a brief outline of some of the more important events in the history of the colony. They have been given at intervals in the book and it is hoped that they will serve to remind readers of the events of the period covered by the photographs. Secondly where possible a caption has been used against each photograph and a quotation by a contemporary or authoritative author.
