Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First American edition. 8vo. [5], vi-xx, [3], 24-608 pp. Brown pebbled publisher's cloth with gold lettering and gold rules on the spine. Coated brown endpapers and pastedowns. Wood-engraved frontispiece with 15 additional engraved plates, based on original sketches by the author; one fold-out map and a full-page map. Concluding the title page: "Interspersed with many highly exciting adventures of the author, among elephants, lions, buffaloes, hippopatmi, rhinoceros, antelopes, and other great game of the country; accompanied by expert native sword hunters." Baker provides an account of Eastern Africa: its animals, its peoples, its rivers, its lakes, and its landscapes. He completed the European discovery of the source of the Nile, naming the Albert Nyanza, with help from Sir John Speke. His account of Eastern Africa would greatly influence the common person's attitudes and perceptions of the Nile basin and the peoples who lived there. The plates in the volume depict Baker's penchant for big game hunting. Throughout his life Baker would travel to Eastern Africa, India, and Central Asia to hunt the big game animals that lived in these regions. Other than hunting, Baker served as a governor of Egyptian territory in the Nile Basin, working to suppress the Arab slave trade and advance British interests in the region. This volume presents an important record in the history of colonization and the natural history of the Nile basin (Oxford Dictionary of National Biography: "Baker, Sir Samuel White").
