Publisher's Synopsis

New Light On Dark Africa: Being The Narrative Of The German Emin Pasha Expedition by Carl Peters is a first-hand account of the German expedition to East Africa in the late 19th century. The book details the journey of Peters and his team as they traveled through the uncharted regions of Africa, encountering various indigenous tribes and navigating the treacherous terrain. The expedition was primarily focused on establishing German colonial rule in the region and securing trade routes for German merchants. Peters provides a detailed account of the political and social conditions of the region, including the conflicts between various tribes and the impact of European colonialism on the local population. The book also sheds light on the life and work of Emin Pasha, a German physician and governor in the region, and his efforts to establish a stable government and improve the lives of the people under his rule. New Light On Dark Africa is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of colonialism in Africa, as well as the exploration and discovery of new lands. Peters' vivid descriptions of the African landscape and its people provide a unique perspective on a time and place that is often overlooked in traditional historical accounts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
