This little-know work, first published in 1891 and here reproduced in facsimile, provides a first-hand account of the slave trade in British and German East Africa during the latter years of the nineteenth century.


The author, a Christian missionary, tempers his descriptions of this shocking trade with an unusually sympathetic view of both the African slave and the Arab trader. Alongside this account runs a fascinating study of the region south and east of the Lake then known as Victoria-Nyanza, in which details of flora and fauna and the daily life of the native population are included.
