About This Book

This volume offers a traveler's account of the East African coast combining shipboard narrative, landward marches, and ethnographic observation. It follows coastal passages and visits to ports, mission houses, and plantations, records encounters with diverse communities and tribal groups, and describes inland ascents, diplomatic exchanges, and field hunts. Interwoven are details on commerce, agriculture, and daily life, while appendices present thermometric, meteorological, and commercial notes and voyage observations, providing both lively reportage and systematic data on the geography, peoples, and economy of the coast and adjacent interior.
