Using unpublished documents of sale preserved in the Deeds Office in Cape Town, the author traces the history and origins of the Cape Coloured People beginning with forced immigrants who were brought to the shores of Table Bay and sold into slavery by officials of the Dutch East India Company, by skippers and seamen, by English and Danish slave traders.
