This significant architectural and historical study documents the restoration of Church Street in Tulbagh, South Africa, following the devastating 1969 earthquake. Authored by the renowned architect Gawie Fagan and his wife Gwen, a celebrated historical researcher and landscape architect, the book provides a meticulous account of the Cape Dutch heritage and the monumental efforts to preserve one of the country's most iconic streetscapes. Published in 1975 by the Tulbagh Restoration Committee, this large-format volume is filled with historical maps, architectural sketches, and evocative black-and-white photography. The book is in fair condition; the cloth-bound cover shows surface wear, scuffing, and loss to the printed title, particularly on the front board. Internally, however, the pages remain clean, crisp, and securely bound, maintaining the integrity of the scholarly content and imagery.
