Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Heart of Africa, Vol. 2 I must decline in this place to handle exhaustively the subject of the results of our explorations in the volcanic territory. They may be left for discussion in scientific treatises. The. Chief object of the following pages is to present to the reader in broad and general outlines an intelligible picture of the volcanoes and of their neighbouring territory round Lake Kiwu, and to afford him an impression, if only a fleeting one, of the mysterious sway exercised by the subterranean powers visible in the great Central Africa rift-valley, without doubt one of the most stupendous excavations in the earth's surface that is known.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Africana, Vol. 2: Or, the Heart of Heathen Africa The Ancients were not so ignorant about Africa as is Often supposed. Ever since that Old Phenician fleet went down the Red Sea and appeared, three years after wards, in the Mediterranean, people knew that it was possible to sail round the Continent. It is said that the great Portuguese explorers derived an impulse from old maps which described Southern Africa as bounded by sea, but in any case the Portuguese are justly celebrated for their African discoveries, for all the knowledge on this subject that came from antiquity was in their days as faint as a half-forgotten dream.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heart of Africa, Vol. 2 of 2: Three Years Travels and Adventures in the Unexplored Regions of Central Africa, From 1868 to 1871 Munza was impatiently awaiting the arrival of the Khartoomers. His storehouses were piled to the full with ivory and hunting booty of an entire year, which he was eager to exchange for the produce of the north or to see replaced by new supplies of the red ringing metal which should flow into his treasury. This was Mohammed's third visit to the country, and not only interested motives prompted the king to receive him warmly, but real attachment; for the two had mutually pledged their friendship in their blood, and called each other by the name of brother. During his absence in Khartoom, Mohammed had entrusted the command of the expedition of the previous year to his brother Abd-el-fetah, a Mussulman of the purest water and a hypocritical fanatic, who had greatly offended the king by his arrogance and unsympathetic reserve.

Download or read book The History of Rome Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by Wilhelm Ihne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Rome, Vol. 2 Opposite to the far-spreading peninsulas and deep in dented shores of Europe and her numerous islands, stretches in a long and uniform line the stony coast of Africa, the most compact part of the Old as well as of the new world. NO more marked contrast can be found, in such immediate proximity, upon the surface of the globe, than the two continents which form the abodes of the black and white races of man. The solid mass of land in the sultry south, the primeval seat of unmitigated barbarism, has remained closed to the present day against the refinement of a higher civilisation, whilst Europe early received the seed of culture and unfolded the richest and most varied forms of intellectual, social, and political life. On the east of Africa the narrow valley formed by the Nile is indeed separated from the heart of the African continent, and on the north the cheerless wastes Of the interior bound a belt of land of varying breadth along the coast which is capable of much cultivation. These regions differ, how ever, essentially from the sea-girt islands and peninsulas of Europe, where a milder sun and a greater variety of climate have brought about gentler manners and richer forms of social and political life.

"Has any one seen Ulu this morning?" asked Kate, suddenly, in the midst of the light talk which ensued. "Ferjallah, do you know where she is?" she continued, addressing the boy in attendance. Scarcely had the words left her lips when a sharp, ear-piercing scream quivered through the air. For a moment every one sat still, each looking at the other in mute surprise.
