This book was released on 2017-10-19 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Angola and the River Congo, Vol. 1 of 2 The following description of the country between the River Zaire or Congo, and Mossamedes or Little Fish Bay, comprising ten degrees of latitude, is the result of many years of travel in and exploration of that part of the coast. My aim has been to present an accurate and truthful account of its more striking features and productions, and of the manners and customs of the various tribes which inhabit it. I have avoided mentioning more names of places and persons than are necessary, as they would be of little or no interest to the general reader. I have also omitted detailed lists and descriptions of plants and animals that I have collected, as such would only interest naturalists, who are referred to the different scientific publications in which they have been described. This being the first detailed account of a most interesting and rich part of Tropical Africa, I leave it with confidence to the indulgence of my readers, assuring them that at all events a want of truth is not included in its shortcomings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The River Congo, From Its Mouth to Bolobo: With a General Description of the Natural History and Anthropology of Its Western Basin This remarkable development, which has taken place in what is after all only a small slice of my own lifetime, may interest some few of my readers in this old record of my experiences on the Congo at a time when Stanley's work was first beginning. I have left this record but little altered, preferring that the public should read the somewhat artless descriptions of a very young man, rather than a remodelled and more staid treatise which might lose its sense of actuality. I have, of course, cowefixah amobvious inaccuracies, and. Where it is useful I have added a little new matter written in the light of fuller knowledge, and I have also cut out most of the scientific appendices as being out of date and no longer necessary in the much fuller knowledge which prevails of the fauna and flora of the Congo Basin.

COUNTRY FROM THE RIVER CONGO TO AMBRIZ--VEGETA-TION--TRADING--CIVILIZATION--COMMERCE--PRODUCTS--IVORY--MUSSERRA--SLEEP DISEASE--SALT--MINERAL PITCH. The southern point, at the entrance of the River Congo, is called Point Padrao, from a marble "Padrao," or monu-ment raised by the Portuguese to commemorate the dis-covery of the River Congo by Diogo Cam, in 1485. At a short distance from it there formerly existed a monastery and missionary establishment dedicated to Santo Antonio. That part of the southern bank of the river opposite Banana is called Santo Antonio to this day, and a few years ago a Portuguese trader opened a house there for the pur-pose of trade; in this he was followed by the agent of a Liverpool firm, but the result, naturally to be foreseen, took place, and both factories were robbed and burnt down by the rascally Mussurongos. Some time before this took place, I was waiting at Banana for some means of convey-ance by sea to Ambriz, but none appearing, I determined, in company with a Brazilian who was also desirous of pro-ceeding to the same place, to cross over to Santo Antonio, and try if we could induce the natives to allow us to pass thence overland to Cabeca da Cobra. This we did, and remained at the trader's house till we got carriers and permission, on making a small present to the king of Santo Antonio town, to pass through. No white man had been allowed to do so for many years. We started one night as soon as the moon rose, about one o'clock, and after travelling a couple of hours, almost the whole time over marshy ground and through a dry wood, which we had to pass on foot, --as it was a fetish wood and it would have been highly unlucky to cross it in our ham VEGETATION. mocks, --we arrived at the town of...
