Description
We've all heard of the big five, but what is the big six? Or the big twelve? Which is the tallest building in the southern hemisphere, and where is it situated? Who was the first South African to climb Mount Everest, and when and where was the first rugby match played in South Africa? The answers to all these questions, and many, many more, are to be found in Van Lill's South African miscellany. Categories such as nature, sport, politics and entertainment cover such diverse topics as South Africa's lighthouses, our political leaders, past and present, the nicknames of rugby players, the Johannesburg securities exchange and world famous musicians born in South Africa. This title will tell the reader about the biological diversity of South Africa, its wealth in gold, its mountains and conservation areas, its toll roads and cities, thus amply illustrating the richness and variety in this wonderful country.
