Book Africa  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Africa Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by A. Henry Keane and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Africa, Vol. 1 IN the new issue of this series the single volume formerly thought sufficient for the treatment of African geography is replaced by two, each somewhat larger than that work. Yet the more than doubled space has seemed scarcely adequate to a proper exposition of the facts, both of a geographical and political order, which have accumulated with surprising rapidity since the leading Powers resolved, a few years ago, to transform this continent to a political dependency of Europe. Occurrences of far-reaching consequence have followed-in such swift succession that in the preparation of this work the chief difficulty has been to keep pace with the shifting scenes. In some instances many carefully-prepared pages have had to be greatly modified, and even re-written, owing to the un expected turn taken by events in various parts of the continent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Across Africa, Vol. 1 of 2 N placing this book before the public, I am conscious of its shortcomings as a narrative having an unbroken interest for the general reader. As a fact, I never contemplated writing a book of travel but merely undertook the curney under the circumstances detailed in Chapter I. To have introduced and enlarged upon personal events, sport, the sayings and doings of my followers, &c., would have increased the size of this work to an alarming degree; for it must be remembered that the period dealt with extends over three years and five months. Nearly the Whole of that time I was on the tr& and it has been my object to make this a guide by which my footsteps may be traced by those interested in the exploration of Africa, rather than a personal narrative of adventure and travel.
