Book Synopsis The Adventures of Sir Samuel White Baker by : M. J. Trow
Download or read book The Adventures of Sir Samuel White Baker written by M. J. Trow and published by Pen and Sword History. This book was released on 2010 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Samuel White Baker is one of those larger-than-life heroes only the Victorians could invent. For too long, the British Empire has been denigrated and equated with arrogance at best and racial bigotry at worst. Samuel Baker transcends that. He was an explorer and naturalist, recording new species on his many travels; a big game hunter with huge expertise across continents; an engineer of skill and ingenuity; a general of ability; an administrator second to none; and an ardent opponent of African slavery. M. J. Trow, in this the first biography of Baker for twenty years, draws heavily on Baker's prolific writings to bring the extraordinary character of this Victorian adventurer and his achievements to life.

Book Synopsis Imperial Vanities by : Brian Thompson
Download or read book Imperial Vanities written by Brian Thompson and published by HarperCollins Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Imperial Vanities is an adventure story in the high tradition, ranging from the upper Nile to Ceylon, Egypt and the slave markets of the Balkans. Wilful, profoundly eccentric and driven by the sort of idealism we no longer consider an heroic virtue, the lives of these men combine to make a tragi-comic commentary on the most widely-held conviction of their times: that God himself was an Englishman. 'Better a ball in the brain than to flicker out unheeded', Gordon wrote in his journal. Written with Thompson's masterly touch, this is history at its best."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Explorers of the Nile written by Tim Jeal and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 807 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1856 and 1876, five explorers, all British, took on the seemingly impossible task of discovering the source of the White Nile. Showing exceptional courage and extraordinary resilience, Richard Burton, John Hanning Speke, Samuel Baker, David Livingstone and Henry Morton Stanley risked their lives and their reputations in the name of this quest. They journeyed through East and Central Africa into unmapped territory, discovered the great lakesTanganyika and Victoria, navigated the upper Nile and the Congo, and suffered the ravages of flesh-eating ulcers, malaria and deep spear wounds. Using new research, Tim Jeal tells the story of these great expeditions, while also examining the tragic consequences which the Nile search has had on Uganda and Sudan to this day. Explorers of the Nile is a gripping adventure story with an arresting analysis of Britain's imperial past and the Scramble for Africa.
