'A very racy and eminently readable book.'--_St. James's Gazette._
'As a straightforward account of a great deal of plucky work

'The book is full of good things, and of sustained interest.'--_St.
James's Gazette._
'A graphic sketch of one of the most exciting and important episodes
in the struggle for supremacy in Central Africa between the Arabs and
their Europeon rivals. Apart from the story of the campaign, Captain
Hinde's book is mainly remarkable for the fulness with which he
discusses the question of cannibalism. It is, indeed, the only
connected narrative--in English, at any rate--which has been published
of this particular episode in African history.'--_Times._
'Captain Hinde's book is one of the most interesting and valuable
contributions yet made to the literature of modern Africa.'--_Daily

his relation to the land. The illustrations are good and well
selected, and the map is excellent.'--_Manchester Guardian._
