"African adventure and lost-race romance. Although now forgotten, a popular book in its day. The modern reader may find it entertaining if he/she is prepared to accept the romantic convention and the white racial arrogance toward blacks typical of travel books of the time."

Professionally rebacked with original spine laid on. Hinges repaired. Mild foxing to the edges of the text block. Neat owner's signature on the half-title page. A very good copy.
