About
"This story, written for members of the Rudner family and their friends, is about two disparate people, a Swede (Jalmar) and a South African (Ione). Besides their professions - one an architect and town-planner with the Cape Town municipality, the other a research assistant and editor at the South African Museum for 29 years - they were also amateur archaeologists. In their spare-time and in liaison with the Museum they undertook numerous archaeological expeditions and many weekend field trips in Southern Africa, often with their two sons. The Rudners jointly wrote many papers and several books based on their archaeological work. Somehow they also found time for other publications, including translations of nine books by early Scandinavian travellers in Southern Africa. Their story relates numerous anecdotes about their family life, as well as people and places encountered during their travels."--Back cover.
