Abstract
This paper reconstructs aspects of the pioneering botanical expedition of Edward Ernest Galpin (1858–1941) accompanied by his wife, Marie Elizabeth Galpin (1859–1933), to the highland areas of the Eastern Cape Drakensberg in 1904. Details of the route, organization and logistics of Galpin's journey are described as well as a discursive record of his main botanical discoveries.
