Through the Cape Colony in 1848, with an Account of his Visit to the Island of St Helena, in 1849. First edition. Two folding maps. 16mo. Fine later red half morocco, spine gilt. viii, 227pp. London, Gray's diocese was so large, second in size only to Calcutta, that it could not be covered adequately in one journey. His first visit therefore concentrated on the Cape Colony. "The journal contains an excellent description of the state of the Colony in the middle of the nineteenth century, the author visiting a very large number of towns, villages and other settlements. He was present at the celebrated meeting of Sir Harry Smith with the Kaffir chiefs at King William's Town on October 7, 1848, and gives an account of proceedings" (Mendelssohn). Gray returned in 1850 and travelled to Natal, British Kaffraria and the Eastern Province. Mendelssohn I, pp627-8.
