We are the well-established Simon van der Stel Foundation / Stigting Simon van der Stel that was founded here in the Southern Cape 23 years ago. The heart of our activities lie in the George, Oudtshoorn, Mossel Bay triangle. Our mission is to stimulate an interest in and awareness of the cultural heritage of the Southern Cape.
We are the authors of the Cape Commando Series - a series of books dealing with the South African War in the Cape Colony.
Taffy, who obtained her doctorate from Stellenbosch University in 2005 with a thesis entitled "The Cape Rebel of the South African War", is the writer, while David does the editing and marketting. We also write other non-fiction books.
David is the Chairman of the Simon van der Stel Foundation: Southern Cape Branch, and Taffy is the Secretary.
