About This Book

A richly detailed travel journal records an extended expedition through regions of the Niger and surrounding Sahel, combining day-by-day diary entries with thematic chapters on geography, commerce, and society. It describes an unusual rise of the river, market life at a great riverside emporium where most goods are imported and limited local manufacture—notably leatherwork—persists, caravan routes from northern oases, and the circulation of gold and salt. The narrative also documents political unrest, military encampments, religious disputes, and everyday material culture, offering ethnographic observations on trade networks, craft production, and the rhythms of urban and camp life.
