Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cape Town is a place between two oceans, between first and third worlds, between east and west. The majority of its citizens: a people between black and white, native and settler, African and European. How can we understand a city that is most assuredly in Africa, though not””seemingly””of it? By exploring this city’s tween-ness, we can begin to understand the soul of this town””haunted by its past, unsure of its future. A short book just over 100 pages, it allows readers to quickly identify the unique pulse of the city, its throbbing historical, social, cultural and political beat that underlies the transactions between all Capetonians. This is not a substitute for a traditional guidebook, but a perfect companion to one, filling in the intimate details that other books leave out.

Practical advice on mountain safety, local weather conditions and how to deal with snakes ensures that the hiker is given a clear idea of what to expect. For this eighth edition, all route descriptions and maps have been brought up to date and photographs have been added for lively interest. Each route includes: • Easy-to-follow directions • Accurate route map • Average hiking time • GPS coordinates for start and finish points • Grading that covers difficulty and exposure • Notes on the availability of water • Advice on whether dogs can be taken along • Fascinating information on historical sites, plants, trees and birds en route The GPS tracks for each walk can be downloaded from www.gpstravelmaps.com/bestwalks.php Veteran hiker Mike Lundy has written several books and more than 200 magazine features and newspaper articles on walking in the Western Cape and has presented weekly hiking reports on GoodHope FM, 567 CapeTalk and 94.5 KFM. In 1996 he received a merit award from the Hiking Federation of Southern Africa for exceptional services to the hiking community. He lives in Hout Bay, Cape Town.
