Published in 2002. Cape Town is a uniquely beautiful city, rich in the character and diverse culture of its people. It is surrounded by spectacular natural beauty and is South Africa's oldest city, with a rich architectural heritage reflecting a fascinating history. It is infused with the personal spirit of Tony Grogan's drawings. Done on the spot, they conveyed his delight in the atmosphere of a transformed city. His acute eye and ear captured the characters and rhythms of life in public places, historic and modern building, and the natural beauty of the coast and mountains. Grogan's captions elaborate on the drawings: respectful of traditions and persons, and bubbling with humour, the book records everyday events and scenes in the Cape. As an artist he pays tribute to a place which, he says, is never boring. In its liveliness and spontaneity this sketchbook oofers rare pleasures and surprises.
