Light wear on the corners of the dustjacket; price intact; no interior markings. When Caroline Alexander set out to explore the equatorial African country of Gabon, she retraced the steps of a journey made in 1895 by Mary Kingsley, author of the best-selling classic Travels in West Africa. For most people great travel books lead merely to realms of the imagination, heaven for an armchair geographer, but for an intrepid few, they pose an actual invitation. Kingsley wrote that if anyone went to Gabon, they would find things exactly as she said. Alexander decided to take up the offer. The Contents are: Libreville; Lambarene; Samba Falls; Talagouga or the Sight of Woe; Hunting Rapids; End of the Line; Overland to the Remboue; and Homeward Bound. Size: 8vo. Book.

First Edition
Hardcover first edition - First printing. First book by this Florida born author, one in which she tells of her journey into Gabon in West Africa, almost a century after Mary Kingsley, then 30, who ventured into this area in 1893 - "a region notorious for its deadly climate and diseases, its alarming wildlife, and its cannibals" - a trip which led to her classic book 'Travels in West Africa.'. . "Armed with Kingsley's book and maps, her own background research, and a store of determination, the author trekked through bamboo forests and villages of mud huts, . . Juxtaposing the colorful details of her days with the writings of a vast cast of explorers from a century before, she weaves a verbal tapestry that tells of her deepening affection for the Gabonese and growing admiration for the exploits of her 19th-century forebear." (Publishers' Weekly) Map frontispiece, bibliography. 290 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket.
