Three Hundred Miles In A Hammock: Or Six Weeks In Africa is a travelogue written by Alvin Willard Hall and published in 1889. The book chronicles Hall's six-week journey through West Africa, where he traveled over three hundred miles in a hammock. The narrative is filled with vivid descriptions of the landscapes, people, and cultures he encountered along the way, including encounters with local tribes, wildlife, and colonial officials. Hall's account provides a unique perspective on Africa during the late 19th century, as he describes the impact of European colonization and the effects of the slave trade on the region. The book also includes illustrations and maps to help readers visualize the places Hall visited. Overall, Three Hundred Miles In A Hammock is an engaging and informative account of a journey through a fascinating and complex region of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
