Travels In The Interior Of Africa by Mungo Park

From the Introduction; “Travels in the Interior of Africa describes a journey from Gambia through the present day states of Senegal and Mali in the years 1795 -7. The dates and the places are important. They set Mungo Park at the very dawn of African exploration and in a corner of the continent which was to engage British interest only briefly. Park was out of context and over-shadowed within a few decades of his travels. But the improbable setting of his tale and its inconsequential aftermath also help to account for its timeless quality.”
