In hopes of tracing the course of the Niger River Denham's expedition crossed the desert along the long-established Sahara trade route to the kingdom of Bornu later Nigeria a route littered with the skeletons of thousands of slaves abandoned there over the centuries. They sighted Lake Chad and reached the capital of Bornu where they were welcomed by a spectacular array of some five thousand horsemen sent by the Muslim prophet who ruled Bornu in the king's name. Though delighted to meet them he refused to let them continue their explorations lest they meet some misadventure for which he would be blamed. Ultimately the expedition returned to England having failed to find the Niger but having opened much of north central Africa to European knowledge. Written in a lively style and embellished with engravings of Denham's own sketches this account became one of the classics of its genre DNB. Denham was later appointed lieutenant-governor of the colony of Sierra Leone where he died of the African fever in 1828. <br/><br/> John Murray hardcover books

Winwood Reade's introduction notes that ".out of a host of men who have attempted to penetrate Africa from north to south only two have achieved success. The first and foremost of these is Sir Samuel Baker; the second is Dr. G.A. Schweinfurth . who submitted to the Royal Academy of Science a plan for the botanical exploration of the equatorial districts lying west of the Nile . During three years he was absent in the heart of Africa and even before he had returned his name had already become famous in Europe and America. "Travelling not in the footsteps of Baker but in a westerly direction he reached the neighbourhood of Baker's lake passing through the country of the Niam-Niam and visiting the unknown kingdom of Monbuttoo . a scientific botanist and also an accomplished draughtsman . In a geographical sense this work is of importance as a contribution to the problem of the Nile; and ethnologically it sets at rest a point which has long been under dispute viz. the existence of a dwarf race in Central Africa." <br/><br/> Harper & Brothers, publishers, Franklin Square hardcover books

Henry Aaron Stern 1820-1885 was an Anglican missionary and captive in Abyssinia. "In August 1842 he was admitted into the Hebrew College of the London Jews' Society with the ultimate intention of becoming a missionary to the Jews." He was sent first to Jerusalem then Baghdad and Istanbul where he stayed for nearly six years. "The London Jews' Society then directed Stern to travel to Ethiopia to preach to the Beta Israel Jews arriving on March 10 1860. Tewodros II of Ethiopia initially welcomed Stern and Stern fixed his headquarters at Gondar. "Following various slights by Lord John Russell of the British Foreign Office and others the Ethiopian emperor's attitude to the British changed. Stern was summoned to appear before the emperor at Gondar in October 1863 where Stern was beaten and imprisoned together with a Mr. Rosenthal his LJS assistant. By the time they were transferred to prison at Amba Magdala in November 1864 they were joined by the British consul Charles Cameron and other Europeans. Stern's situation was made more difficult by the fact that the emperor was made aware of uncomplimentary material in Stern's book - including having stated that the emperor's mother was a vendor of kosso - in Wanderings among the Falashas in Abyssinia: together with a description of the Country and its various Inhabitants 1862" Wikipedia. This lead to the British 1868 Expedition to Abyssinia under the command of Robert Napier who captured the Ethiopian capital and rescued the prisoners. Cassell, Petter, and Galpin unknown

1954232801954. English woman's photo album documenting a year of work and travel in Apartheid era South Africa and Southern Rhodesia in 1954-1955 during a time when white colonies were well established during the consolidation of apartheid. Compiled by an English woman attached to the Over-Seas League Torquay branch and employed for a year in physiotherapy the album moves from Union-Castle sea passage to Cape Town hotels mountain excursions resort and garden visits Rhodesian travel and repeated encounters with African people framed as "native" villages "war dances" and ethnographic spectacle. This album was assembled in the middle of the National Party's early apartheid decade after the Population Registration Act and Group Areas Act of 1950 the Bantu Authorities Act of 1951 the pass law consolidation of 1952 and the Bantu Education Act of 1953 had deepened racial classification territorial segregation labor control and state supervision of Black life while resistance accelerated through the 1952 Defiance Campaign and the 1955 Freedom Charter. <br /> Photo archive of approximately 225 silver gelatin photographs and real photo or printed postcards various sizes South Africa and Southern Rhodesia 1954-1955. Housed in a 12.5" x 9.5" album with black leaves most cornered in with extensive white manuscript captions throughout. The compiler's route is legible page by page: "Off to South Africa. July 1st 1954" beside ship and shipmates; "First Views of Cape Town" "My Hotel in Sea Point" and "Going up Table Mountain"; urban views of Cape Town civic buildings and streets; scenic excursions to Table Bay the Hottentots Holland mountains Ceres and Oudtshoorn; "Coon Carnival on New Years Day" using outdated racialized language with Black performers in racially exaggerated costume makeup; Bulawayo and Southern Rhodesia pages naming hospitals villages roads and grave sites; "Native War Dances" "Bantu villages" "On the road to Pretoria" and "Zulus! In the Valley of a Thousand Hills" where African subjects are repeatedly isolated as performers or spectacle. Other leaves record Groote Constantia Rhodes Memorial Groote Schuur the Malay Quarter and a "Malay Wedding" Kruger National Park Durban Royal Natal National Park sugar plantation scenes Victoria Falls including aerial views brochures menus ship material and invitation ephemera all arranged in a clear chronological travel sequence. Cape Town one of the album's main settings was already a segregated city by the 1940s and 1950s making the compiler's easy movement through hotels gardens roads and viewpoints part of the racial ordering that structured urban South Africa. <br /> The album plainly records colonial hierarchy as everyday practice rather than abstract policy. A white British woman could arrive by imperial shipping line enter professional placement through an elite exchange network rent rooms drive tour monuments to settler power such as Rhodes Memorial and traverse Cape Town Natal Pretoria Kruger and Rhodesia while African people appear in the album largely through the language of tribe village dance labor and spectacle. That contrast places the photographs inside the social order built by apartheid and older settler colonial rule. Light general wear to album scattered corner wear and handling to photographs and postcards some items loose captions clear and legible and photos mostly clean and clear. Overall very good condition. A substantial and thoroughly captioned record of British female travel inside the racial geography of apartheid era southern Africa. unknown
