Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Explorez l'Afrique de l'Ouest à travers les aventures intrépides de Mary H. Kingsley dans "Travels in West Africa (Congo Français, Corisco and Cameroons)". Laissez-vous transporter à travers la plume vibrante de Kingsley dans des régions méconnues du XIXe siècle, allant du Congo Français à Corisco et aux Camerouns. Plongez dans des récits captivants de rencontres avec des cultures tribales fascinantes, des expéditions dans des jungles épaisses et des observations aiguës sur la faune et la flore exotiques. Kingsley offre une perspective unique sur les défis et les merveilles de l'Afrique occidentale, tout en dépeignant le courage personnel nécessaire pour explorer des terres inexplorées. "Travels in West Africa" est bien plus qu'un simple récit de voyage ; c'est une fenêtre ouverte sur un monde lointain, mêlant aventure, anthropologie et exploration botanique, et invitant les lecteurs à découvrir la diversité et la beauté de l'Afrique à travers les yeux d'une exploratrice audacieuse."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supported by a family inheritance that gave her £500 a year, Mary Henrietta Kingsley traveled to Africa to complete the book her father had started. The subject was the culture of Africa and Kingsley stayed with local people while she learned to survive in the African jungles, studied cannibal tribes, discovered new species of fish, and climbed Mount Cameroon by a route untouched by any European before her. Kingsley's ideas greatly influenced European ideas about Africa and the African people and her 1897 account, Travels in West Africa, quickly became a best-seller.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in West Africa: Congo Français, Corisco and Cameroons I inquired of all my friends as a beginning what they knew of West Africa. The majority knew nothing. A percentage said, Oh, you can't possibly go there; that's where Sierra Leone is, the white man's grave, you know. If these were pressed further, one occasionally found that they had had relations who had gone out there after having been sad trials, but, on consideration Of their having left not only West Africa, but this world, were now forgiven and for gotten. One lady however kindly remembered a case Of a gentleman who had resided some few years at Fernando po, but when he returned an aged wreck of forty he shook so Violently with ague as to dislodge a chandelier, thereby destroying a valuable tea-service and flattening the silver teapot in its midst.

Download or read book Travels in West Africa written by Mary Henrietta Kingsley and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 802 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Henrietta Kingsley was an English ethnographic and scientific writer and explorer whose travels throughout West Africa and resulting work helped shape European perceptions of African cultures and British imperialism. After a preliminary visit to the Canary Islands, Kingsley decided to travel to the west coast of Africa. The only non-African women who regularly embarked on (often dangerous) journeys to Africa were usually the wives of missionaries, government officials, or explorers. Exploration and adventure were not seen as fitting roles for women in the Victorian era. Yet, when Mary Kingsley's invalid parents died within six weeks of each other, she followed in her explorer father's footsteps and traveled to Africa against her society's every convention. Here is her lively and witty account of that journey, an immediate bestseller when it first came out in 1897 and every bit as gripping today.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in West Africa: Congo Français, Corisco and Cameroons To The Reader. - What this book wants is not a simple Preface but an apology, and a very brilliant and convincing one at that. Recognising this fully, and feeling quite incompetent to write such a masterpiece, I have asked several literary friends to write one for me, but they have kindly but firmly declined, stating that it is impossible satisfactorily to apologise for my liberties with Lindley Murray and the Queen's English.

Book excerpt: Travels in West Africa(Congo Francais, Corisco and Cameroons)Mary H. KingsleyTo my brother, C. G. Kingsley this book is dedicated.Relateth the various causes which impelled the author to embark upon the voyage.It was in 1893 that, for the first time in my life, I found myself in possession of five or six months which were not heavily forestalled, and feeling like a boy with a new half-crown, I lay about in my mind, as Mr. Bunyan would say, as to what to do with them. "Go and learn your tropics," said Science. Where on earth am I to go? I wondered, for tropics are tropics wherever found, so I got down an atlas and saw that either South America or West Africa must be my destination, for the Malayan region was too far off and too expensive. Then I got Wallace's Geographical Distribution and after reading that master's article on the Ethiopian region I hardened my heart and closed with West Africa. I did this the more readily because while I knew nothing of the practical condition of it, I knew a good deal both by tradition and report of South East America, and remembered that Yellow Jack was endemic, and that a certain naturalist, my superior physically and mentally, had come very near getting starved to death in the depressing society of an expedition slowly perishing of want and miscellaneous fevers up the Parana.
