In The Heart Of Africa is a chronicle of the travels of Samuel White Baker, a British explorer, through the African continent in the mid-19th century. The book is a fascinating account of Baker's adventures, as he traverses through the uncharted territories of Central Africa, encountering various tribes, wildlife, and natural wonders. Baker's journey begins in Egypt, where he sets out to find the source of the Nile River. He travels through Sudan, Ethiopia, and Uganda, mapping out new territories, and documenting the customs and cultures of the people he meets. Along the way, he faces numerous challenges, including hostile tribes, treacherous terrain, and disease.The book is filled with vivid descriptions of the African landscape, from the lush forests to the arid deserts. Baker's encounters with exotic animals such as elephants, lions, and crocodiles are particularly thrilling. The book also sheds light on the slave trade, which was prevalent in Africa at the time, and Baker's efforts to put an end to it.In The Heart Of Africa is a compelling read for anyone interested in African history, exploration, and adventure. It provides a unique perspective on the continent at a time when it was largely unknown to the outside world. Baker's writing style is engaging and descriptive, making the reader feel like they are right there with him on his journey.IT was the season of rejoicing. Everybody appeared in good humor. The distended udders of thousands of camels were an assurance of plenty. The burning sun that for nine months had scorched the earth was veiled by passing clouds. The cattle that had panted for water, and whose food was withered straw, were filled with juicy fodder.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
