Description: In 1913 Dorothea Bleek travelled to a remote village in Bechuanaland (now Botswana) to investigate the language of the San/Bushmen living in the area. Jill Weintroub recounts the story of the expedition and considers it in the context of Dorothea Bleek's project of continuing the research her father and aunt, Wilhelm Bleek and Lucy Lloyd, had begun.
