Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
In 1795, a young Scottish physician set out to explore the course of the Niger River. The detailed notes from his arduous two-year adventure in West Africa provided Europeans with their first reliable account of the region. Two centuries later, this early classic of travel literature offers singular geographic and anthropological observations of Africa before colonial influence.
This Dover edition, first published in 2010, is an unabridged republication of the text and illustrated plated from Travels in the Interior of Africa, published in 1858 by Adam and Charles Black, Edinburgh.The text was originally published as Travels in the Interior Districts of Africa: Performed in the Years 1795, 1796 and 1797, by John Murray, London, in 1816.
