Into Africa
Into Africa | Thomas Sterling
2 posts | 1 read
When the explorer Ren Cailli returned to France from Africa in 1828, he published a sketch of the legendary city he had discovered - Timbuctoo. But neither that simple drawing nor his matter-of-fact description gave Cailli's countrymen a sufficiently colorful picture to match their preconceptions of how Africa should look. They turned their backs on the young explorer, ignored his accomplishments, and let him die neglected. Here are the epic adventures of the European explorers who opened Africa from Mongo Park and Vasco da Gama to Francis Burton and David Livingstone and Henry Stanley.

Mehso-so

A very brief overview of various explorers and their quests to map various rivers. Too brief to teach much else than that if you went to Africa, you died, and the natives were exceptionally unfriendly. (They didn't necessarily kill you, but you died nonetheless.)
