Erstausgabe
8vo (147 x 228 mm). XVI, 143, (1 blank), (2) pp. (ads). With large folding map of North-West Africa, coasts hand-lined in blue. Contemporary brown cloth decorated in blind. First edition of this work on north-west Africa from the Maghreb to the Gold Coast, proposing an Arab-centric interpretation of a geopolitical landscape little understood by Europeans. Its author, the Irishman William Cooley, was aided and provided with Arabic texts and translations by the Spanish orientalist Pascual de Gayangos y Arce (1809-97). - Includes a large folding map titled "Sketch of a Map to illustrate the Arab Geography of Negroland", which delineates the African landscape from Tripoli to Cape Verde. Its most particularly detailed routes are along river systems, but also sketches out a landscape of Saharan place names and routes, including the territory of the Bedouin Beni Hassan tribes, who migrated thence in roughly the 11th century (with their origin placed by some scholars in Yemen). Saharan caravan routes run along place names such as Beni Wareth, Weinhilún, Aúkarit, and Támadelt. - Much of the text is devoted to the histories of ancient states like Ghana and Mali, as well as tracing the well-known travels of Ibn Battuta. Cooley was famous for his stubborn insistence on a few major errors in African geography, such as his opinion that there could be no snow-capped mountains on the continent (despite being presented with evidence of Mount Kilimanjaro), or that Lake Nyasa (also known as Lake Malawi) and Lake Tanganyika formed a single body of water. However, he spoke Kiswahili and was instrumental in debunking a famously (but, to this day, debatably) fraudulent account of a voyage through Africa by Frenchman Jean-Baptiste Douville (1797-1837). - Light offsetting to map, some foxing near end. Faint rubbing to covers, spine splitting at top, but generally in good condition. - From the collection of the U.S. conservationist Esmond Bradley Martin (1941-2018), long a U.N. special envoy for the conservation of rhinoceros, with the original 1975 invoice from Francis Edwards Ltd. of London to Martin loosely inserted. - Macro 745.

In den Warenkorbor, an Inquiry into the Early History and Geography of Central Africa. First edition. Large folding map. 8vo. A fine copy in modern half morocco, gilt. xvi, 143, [2]ads.pp. London, J Arrowsmith, Based on extracts from the writings of Ibn Khaldun and Ibn Batutah, this work is a comparative account of early georgraphic descriptions of Central Africa in light of European exploration of the day. "The attainment of that end will throw a steady light on the past condition of a country now awakening a general interest. It will enable us to trace some important political revolutions; to discern the nations that have stood forth politcally eminent, and to estimate correctly . the progress of civilization in Africa" (Preface). Cooley first became associated with Africa upon his exposing M Douville's fraud, Voyage au Congo, in 1832. He later became an honourary free member of the Royal Geographic Society.
