Produktbeschreibung
A doorway to the heart of Victorian Africa, opened by a fearless explorer and rendered anew for today's readers. The Albert N'Yanza invites you to walk with Sir Samuel White Baker along the Nile's magical sources and the broader Nile basin, where travelogue narrative meets expedition memoirs in a vivid, living panorama. This is more than a journey; it is a window into african geography discovery and ethnographic travel writing that blends meticulous observation with human drama. Baker's voice captures the textures of 19th century africa-the landscapes, peoples, and perils-while weaving reflections on colonial-era travel that resonate with researchers and historians alike. The narrative stands beside the great exploration literature classics, recalling Livingstone and Burton as it charts the unknown through careful reportage, curiosity, and daring. Out of print for decades, this edition from Alpha Editions is restored for today's and future generations. It is not merely a reprint but a collector's item and a cultural treasure, carefully prepared for casual readers who crave a compelling tale and for classic-literature enthusiasts who seek a definitive, enduring edition. A vibrant, accessible odyssey that honours the legacy of early explorers while inviting fresh discovery, The Albert N'Yanza nourishes both our appetite for adventure and our respect for a pivotal era in the annals of African exploration.
