Description: [From Introduction] Few of the many visitors to South Africa journey into the isolated country east of Queenstown and south of Elliot, in the rugged basin and range country of that part of the Transkei. That is largely a forgotten land, hidden south of the Mount Arthur range from the rolling grasslands of the Drakensburg foothills and their commercial farms.
Description: Colin Lewis was Professor of Geography at Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa from 1989 until his retirement at the end of 2007. In 1990, with the strong support of the incumbent Vice-Chancellor, Dr Derek Henderson, he instigated the Certificate in Change Ringing (Church Bell Ringing) in the Rhodes University Department of Music and Musicology - the first such course to be offered in Africa. Since that date he has lectured in the basic theory, and taught the practice of change ringing. He is the Ringing Master of the Cathedral of St Michael and St George, Grahamstown, South Africa.
