Geknelde Land
Hoe gebeur dit dat 'n hele gevestigde gemeenskap sy tentpenne uitruk en die wildernis intrek? In Geknelde land gee FA Venter 'n diep-menslike antwoord op die en ook op baie ander vrae oor die Groot Trek. Dit is die verhaal van die Dreyer-gesin van Grensplaas en vertel van die ontberings en terugslae wat die boeregesin moes verduur voor hulle uiteindelik ook besluit om te trek. Die hooffiguur, Rudolf Dreyer, weier aanvanklik om sy plaas te verlaat, selfs nadat dit verwoes is. Geknelde land is 'n uitbeelding van die konflik in Rudolf se gemoed en die stryd wat hy met sy medemens en met homself voer voordat hy tot 'n besluit gedwing word.

How we describe the condition of our books
We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)
New: Exactly as it says.
As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.
Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.
Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.
Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.
Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
