Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some African Highways: A Journey of Two American Women to Uganda and the Transvaal Much of the material in this volume first appeared in the Chicago Tribune in 1906. I have, however, added a good deal of new matter. I have taken especial pains to bring the chapter on Sleeping-sickness up to date, with the help of official reports furnished me by authorities in that part of Africa where this terrible scourge prevails. This narrative is, however, merely a description of a trip made by two American women to Uganda and the Transvaal. It is published with the hope of interesting other Americans in one of the most fascinating and unique tours in the world - a tour which can be made with entire safety and great comfort.
