Impressions of Western Africa, with Remarks on the Diseases of the Climate: and a Report on the Peculiarities of Trade up the Rivers in the Bight of Biafra is a book written by Thomas Joseph Hutchinson in 1858. The book is a detailed account of Hutchinson's travels through Western Africa, where he observed and documented the various diseases prevalent in the region, as well as the unique trade practices of the people living along the Bight of Biafra. Hutchinson's observations provide valuable insights into the cultural, economic, and medical aspects of life in Western Africa during the mid-19th century. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part discussing the climate and geography of the region, the various diseases that Hutchinson encountered, and his observations on the local medical practices. The second part of the book focuses on the trade practices of the people living along the Bight of Biafra, including their methods of transportation and the goods that they traded.Overall, Impressions of Western Africa is an important historical document that offers a unique perspective on the people, culture, and environment of Western Africa during the 19th century. Hutchinson's detailed observations and insights make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Africa, medicine, or trade.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
