1866xxii, 638, 6 (ads) pages. Fold-out map. Occasional black and white illustrations. "It has been my object in this work to give as clear an account as I was able of tracts of country previously unexplored, with their river systems, natural productions, and capabilities; and to bring before my countrymen, and all others interested in the cause of humanity, the misery entailed by the slave-trade in its inland phases - a subject on which I and my companions are the first who have had any opportunities of forming a judgement." - from Preface. "There must be something in the appearance of white men frightfully repulsive to the unsophisticated natives of Africa; for, on entering villages previously unvisited by Europeans, if we met a child... he would take to his heels in an agony of terror, such as we might feel if we met a live Egyptian mummy at the door of the British Museum." - from page 199.
