‎A travers le continent mystérieux. Découverte des sources méridionales du Nil. Circumnavigation du lac Victoria et du lac Tanganika. Descente du fleuve Livingstone ou Congo jusqu'à l'Atlantique.‎

‎Paris, Librairie Hachette et Cie, 1879. 2 volumes in-4 de [12]-496-[2] et [6]-544 pages, demi-chagrin brun, dos à nerfs.‎

‎Illustré de 150 gravures dont 80 en pleine page et 9 cartes en couleurs, dont 3 dépliantes et une volante, très grande (89 x 71 cm). "Carte de la moitié oriental de l'Afrique Équatoriale et des explorations par terre et par eau de Henry M. Stanley 1874-1877". Bon exemplaire de ce fameux voyage qui dura 999 jours et qui s'étendit sur 11'517 kilomètres: "explorations de l'Afrique équatoriale, qu'il traverse d'est en ouest en partant de Zanzibar en 1874. L’expédition, financée par le Daily Telegraph et le New York Herald, mobilise plus de 230 personnes, porteurs et soldats, et même un bateau de treize mètres en pièces détachées, le Lady Alice. Stanley part de Zanzibar le 17 novembre 1874. Il doit recruter d’autres compagnons en cours de route. Il gagne le lac Victoria par l'itinéraire de John Hanning Speke, et effectue la circumnavigation du lac. Il visite le Buganda, passe par le lac Albert découvert en 1864 par Samuel White Baker et Florence Baker, et explore la totalité des rives du lac Tanganyika du 11 juin au 31 juillet.Stanley rencontre Tippo Tip à Kasongo. Ensemble, ils montent une expédition forte de 400 hommes pour explorer l'Ouest. Ils quittent Nyangwe, le 5 novembre, et pénètrent dans la forêt équatoriale. Après cinquante jours, Tippo Tip renonce, mais Stanley continue vers l'ouest. Pour traverser ces régions, comme le bassin du Congo, où les échanges sont organisés selon les règles strictes du commerce par relais, Stanley doit forcer le passage à plusieurs reprises. Le 20 décembre, 150 personnes réparties sur 23 bateaux entament la descente du fleuve. Le 6 janvier 1877, ils sont bloqués par les chutes Boyoma, qu'ils mettent vingt jours à éviter. Le 1er février, au confluent avec l'Aruwimi, ils combattent contre les Basoko. Le 14 février, ils affrontent les Bangalas. Le 9 mars, ils atteignent le confluent avec le Kasaï, et Ntamo le 12 mars, future implantation de Léopoldville (Kinshasa).Les chutes Livingstone constituent le plus redoutable des obstacles : cinq mois sont nécessaires pour couvrir les quelques centaines de kilomètres qui les séparent de Boma, Alexandre Delcommune recueillant finalement une expédition décimée. Stanley est le dernier des quatre Européens encore vivants, et des 356 compagnons africains seulement 115 parviennent à la côte atlantique en août 1877.Malgré les difficultés, l'exploit est historique. Stanley décrit ce voyage extraordinaire dans un ouvrage publié en 1878, “À travers le continent mystérieux”. " (merci wiki). Dos légèrement passé, une coupe frottée; réparation ancienne à la grande carte sans manque.

‎STEROSCOPE CARDS -‎

‎South African War through the Stereoscope. Vol. I-II.‎

‎Washington, Underwood & Underwood, 1900 - 1901. 72 stereoscope card (177 x 90 mm) housed in the original book-like slipcase. Slipcase with wear. Cards fine and clean.‎

‎Fine collection of 72 stereoscope cards depicting primarily war scenes from the South African War (Anglo-Boer war). Most of the images deal with the action on the north-eastern frontier of the Cape between November 1899 and February 1900 including scenes from Hanover, Naauwpoort, Dordrecht or Arundel and Rensburg (South of Colesburg). U & U photographers were also present on the march to Kimberley, at the surrender of General Cronje at Paardeberg, at the occupation of Bloemfontein, on the march through the Free State towards Johannesburg and the triumphant entry into Pretoria. Images of the Natal campaign (siege of Ladysmith), battlegrounds of Colenso and Spioenkop are also included. “War correspondents and news photographers descended upon South Africa at the start of the Anglo-Boer war, among them the photographers of Underwood & Underwood. These photographers were not news photographers after sensational, gory war images, nor were they part of any pro-British or anti-Boer propaganda campaign. They stayed away from conflict zones but still captured other military related activity with their primary market, namely the American middle class in mind. Underwood and Underwood produced sets of images in boxes made to look like a single, or a pair of books entitled: “The South African War through the Stereoscope”. These boxes were then filled with Anglo-Boer war stereo photographs pasted onto curved cardboard. More titles were added as the war progressed. Later described as the leaders in armchair travel photography, Underwood & Underwood was founded by two brothers in 1881 in Ottawa, Kansas. The brothers were Elmer Underwood (born Fulton County, Illinois 1859 - died St. Petersburg, Florida during 1947) and Bert Elias Underwood (born in Oxford, Illinois 1862 - died Tucson, Arizona during 1943). The company moved its main office from Ottawa, Kansas to New York City 10 years later. During the late 19th and early 20th century, Underwood and Underwood (To be referred to as U & U from this point onwards) responded to the increasing demand of their primary market, namely the middle-class American’s visual curiosity on the expanding world. The Underwoods hired their own photographers, some of whom were Americans. Unfortunately, none of their names have been recorded on the Anglo-Boer war stereo cards or on the photographs themselves. It is thought that some photographs may also have been bought from South African based photographers by U & U. This would however have been an absolute exception and not the rule. The Anglo-Boer war images sold door to door in America would have formed but a small fraction of the wide variety of images and themes on offer by U & U.” (Carol Hardijzer, Anglo-Boer War - Stereo Photographs produced by Underwood & Underwood).‎
