Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Far Off, or Africa and America Described, Vol. 2: With Anecdotes and Numerous Illustrations
This is the most unhappy of the four quar ters of the globe. It is the land whence more slaves come than from any other; it may be called the land of bondage.
It is the hottest of all the quarters of the globe. In many places it seldom rains, and the streams are dried up.
It is less known than any other continent. There are mountains and lakes of immense size, which white men have never seen.
