Brink, ABA. (1979). Engineering Geology of Southern Africa; The first 2,000 million years of geological time. Pretoria: Buildings Publications, 1st edition. vol 1 (of 3), 3319pp. + folded map, 2 folded stereo-triplet air photos and a cross-section. PB, negligible wear, binding sound, book plate and signature of previous owner. Formation table on front endpapers, pocket at rear for folded figures. Colour frontispiece. 20 case studies incorporated in geological unit descriptions. 166 figures include tables, maps, sections, photographs – most b/w a few in colour. In very good condition.
When vol.1 was published covering the first 2,000 million years, the deep basement rocks, one other volume was planned for the latter 2,000 million years. However, two more were necessary, v.2 in 1981, and v.3 in 1983.
