Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of Liberia: Comprising a Brief Account of the Geography, Climate, Productions, and Diseases, of the Republic of Liberia A decided conviction of the necessity of a work in which the earnest inquirer may find the principal topics of Information, which he may desire, respecting the Republic of Liberia, is the motive which has induced the author of these sketches to consent to their publication. His long residence in Liberia, and the great care with which he endeavored to make observations, and to acquire information from the most authentic sources, embolden him to believe that these sketches, presented as they are with the utmost ingenuousness, are worthy the candid consideration of all who desire a knowledge of the truth, respecting the condition and prospects of the little African Republic. Though they may possibly contain some slight inaccuracies, yet the author believes that a more truthful, comprehensive, and impartial account of matters and things as they really exist in Liberia, has not been given to the public. And with no other motive in view than a desire to impart needful and correct information, he leaves this little work to the candid perusal of the unbiassed reader; in the hope that some good may result from this part of his labors in the cause of humanity. It was his design at first to preface these sketches with an outline of the history of Liberia, but fearing that this would too greatly swell the size of this pamphlet, he has concluded to omit all historical details, and to present a simple and concise account of Liberia as it is. It may not be amiss, however, to state briefly, for the information of those persons whose attention has not been particularly directed to the rise and progress of the young Republic, that the first company of emigrants sent from this country under the auspices of the American Colonization Society, embarked at New York in February, 1820. They did not however, succeed in establishing a permanent asylum for themselves and for their followers and descendants, until the early part of the year 1822; at which time the American flag was first hoisted on Cape Mesurado, the site of the present handsome and flourishing town of Monrovia. From that time, the little colony continued to progress, with various trials and discouragements, under the government of the indefatigable Ashmun, and other white persons sent out from time to time by the Colonization Society, until the early part of 1839, when, under the government of Thomas Buchanan, Esq., the "Commonwealth" was established; marking a new epoch in the progress as well as in the history of Liberia.

After an inevitable period in which the vitality of the nation�s own cultural traditions was weakened by Western influence, the nation�s arts and crafts are thriving as Liberians increasingly come to valie their own indigenous cultural expressions while at the same time drawing on the best of Western culture to produce a healthy and exciting eclecticism.Liberia�s National Culture Troupe, for instance, offers plays and dances based on traditional Liberian themes both at home and abroad, under the encouragement of President Tolbert, initiator of the annual National Art and Culture Festival. On Liberian television and radio, African drama and music have an honored place, while Liberian writers, encouraged by the country�s rapidly rising level of literacy, are increasingly finding a voice..
