There was a good crowd at the launch - about 40 people, mainly white farmers from the district. The launch went extremey well and over 20 books were sold. After the launch we had snacks and drinks and I was back at the B&B by about 10pm. Willowdale is an excellent venue for a book launch - it is run by Max and Nikki who hold regular historic evenings. Their website is at this link.
Left Willowdale at about 9pm... tomorrow is the 25th anniversary of the Kokstad Museum!
