Green during his decades of travel along the coasts, harbors, and hinterlands of southern Africa. Green presents a vivid tapestry of forgotten characters, shipwrecks, lost treasures, and vanishing ways of life, drawing on the oral traditions and personal recollections of those who lived through extraordinary times. Written in Green's signature warm and anecdotal style, the narrative carries the intimacy of a fireside conversation, making history feel immediate and deeply human. Each chapter uncovers a new layer of the region's past, from the eccentric pioneers of the Cape to the mysterious figures who haunted remote coastlines, ensuring that these stories — once in danger of being lost forever — are preserved for future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48839385186523,"sku":"2026770002135-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/29e77298-38eb-4ce4-9750-04a7dc51ebb6.png?v=1780561224","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770002135-secondhand-i-heard-the-old-men-say","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
