    Not too long ago, the interior of Africa was a sealed book to the civilized world. The sunny fountains, the golden sands, the palmy plains of Africa were to be traced in the verses of the poet; but he dealt neither in latitude nor longitude. The maps presented a terra incognita, where modern travelers have found rivers, lakes, and alluvial basins, or exhibited barren wastes, where recent discoveries find rich meadows annually flowed, studded with walled towns and cities, enlivened by herds of cattle, or cultivated in plantations of maize and cotton. Jack Donahue takes us back to the forefront of the age of African exploration, the mid-1800s, with first person accounts from those who were there.

    First published in 1799, Travels in the Interior of Africa is teh Scottish explorer Mungo Park's account of his journey through Senegal and Mali to the central portion of the Niger River, the first time a Westerner is known to have reached such central regions. With the backing of Sir Joseph Banks, Park was employed (for £11 a month) to journey solo though unknown lands to seek out the legendary city of "Tambuctoo" and try and ascertain the course of, and if possible, termination point of the river Niger. Park's kit which greeted him upon arrival on the Gold coast was basic to say the least: two shotguns, two compasses, a sextant, a thermometer, a small medicine chest, a wide-brimmed hat, an umbrella and, bizarrely, a blue dress coat with brass buttons (four of which he'd later gift to a native woman for her kindness to him) and a silver-topped cane. 100 miles up the Gambia river, at an English outpost, Park spent 5 months preparing for the journey - which included learning the local language of Mandingo, and succumbing to a month-long bout of malarial fever (which probably ended up saving him later on).

    The Life and Travels of Mungo Park in Central Africa is a historical account of the Scottish explorer's journey through the African continent in the late 18th century. Mungo Park's travels were groundbreaking at the time, as he was one of the first Europeans to explore the interior of West Africa. The book covers his two expeditions to Africa, the first of which took place in 1795 and the second in 1805. The book chronicles Park's encounters with various African tribes and his struggles to navigate the treacherous terrain and climate of the continent. It also provides insight into the political and economic climate of the time, including the slave trade and the rivalry between European powers for control of African resources. The Life and Travels of Mungo Park in Central Africa is considered an important historical document, as it provides a firsthand account of the African continent before European colonization. The book also sheds light on the challenges faced by early explorers and the impact of their discoveries on the world.On the 2d of December 1795, I took my departure from the hospitable mansion of Dr. Laidley. I was fortunately provided with a Negro servant, who spoke both the English and Mandingo tongues. His name was Johnson. He was a native of this part of Africa; and having in his youth been convoyed to Jamaica as a slave, he had been made free, and taken to England by his master, where he had resided many years; and at length found his way back to his native country. As he was known to Dr. Laidley, the Doctor recommended him to me, and I hired him as my interpreter, at the rate of ten bars monthly, to be paid to himself, and five bars a month to be paid to his wife during his absence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
