Laird Egerton K. (w3154)
- Description: Egerton K. Laird authored Incidents of Travel in South Africa (1881), documenting approximately three months in the Cape Colony, Orange Free State, Natal, and Zululand. The narrative covers stops in cities like Kimberley, boat journeys on rivers, carriage excursions, and close observations of local communities and Zulu life. Though not widely remembered among 19th-century travel writers, Laird provides a noteworthy historical snapshot of the sociopolitical and ethnographic landscape of southern Africa just before the Second Boer War. In 1875 he also published The Rambles of a Globe Trotter, a vivid and detailed account of his journeys through Australasia, Japan, China, Java, India and Kashmir
