Pioniers van di Dorsland by Dr. P. J. Van Der Merwe is a historical account that focuses on the migration of Afrikaners in the late 19th century to what is known as the Dorsland (or Thirstland) region.

Van Der Merwe delves into the personal stories of individuals and families, capturing their struggles, triumphs, and the communal spirit that emerged among them during this arduous journey. Hard cover, maps and photos, 4th print 1949, 183 pages, very good condition with a few stains on the cover.
