Excerpt from Tramps Round the Mountains of the Moon: And Through the Back Gate of the Congo State It is always a keenly interesting occupation to be engaged in answering keen questioners, and it is in the hope that it may prove of interest to many such questioners that this book has been written. Questions which have thus been asked as to the Customs Of the people and their religious ideas, the prospects of the country and its future development and so forth, I have endeavoured to answer in the course of the narrative rather than by devoting separate chapters to them. In describing the Tramps I fear that there has been a more frequent use Of the first person singular than one would have wished, but in telling much that was personal it has seemed inevitable.

Excerpt from To the Mountains of the Moon: Being an Account of the Modern Aspect of Central Africa and of Some Little Known Regions Traversed by the Tanganyika Expedition, in 1899 and 1900 But besides this, the serious pursuit of whelks led me of necessity over some areas in the centre of the Continent which had never been visited before, and I had therefore, when I returned, a mass of geographical and descriptive material which had nothing to do directly with the Tanganyika problem, but which was by no means without interest in itself and lastly, there are certain results of the scientific investigations which are without technicality, and yet are at the same time of general interest, because, as I have explained in the first chapter, they completely change our views respecting the past history of this portion of the earth.

Excerpt from Toro: Visits to Ruwenzori, "Mountains of the Moon" M nanja. The passage was an unusually bad one, the water being up to our armpits. However, we soon got through, and marched on a couple of hours to the garden in which we were to sleep. After a change and a cup of tea, the Muanja and mud water and reeds were forgotten. On Wednesday, April Ist, we were clue to reach Mitiana. But another swamp lay between as and our goal. The water was not so deep as the M nanja, but the mud was far more objectionable. It is, however, impos sible to live for six months in Buganda without learning to look upon swamps as necessary evils and to take them as a matter of course. The country through which we had been passing for three clays was wonderfully varied and beautiful. W'ood and forest, plantain-gardens and great sweeps of tiger-grass succeeded each other in quick regularity, and combined in forming pictures of great beauty. Our drum gave notice to Mr. Sugden of the arrival of our party, and he, with a large number of native friends, came out to meet us.

Excerpt from Claudius Ptolemy and the Nile: Or an Inquiry Into That Geographer's Real Merits and Speculative Errors His Knowledge of Eastern Africa and the Authenticity of the Mountains of the Moon But since there were many towns along the Nile of the Sembritae, it is evident that, if we could but ascertain the site of any one of these at the present day, the question would be decided. Now it can hardly be doubted that Sape, called also Esar (the indigenous name perhaps), was the same place which subsequently, under the name of Sobah, became the capital of Alwah, a Christian state, and the ruins of which, decidedly ancient, are still traceable on the right bank of the Blue River four hours and a half above its junction with the White. The remains of Sobah, being of well-burned brick, which is at the present day almost unknown in those countries, have been carried away by the Turks to build Khartum, and there is little left for the study of the antiquarian. The inscriptions found there are all of Christian times, and in Coptic characters; but a small statue of Osiris and some sphynxes discovered in the ruins, serve to connect the site with the pagan age 5. Now since Sape or Sobah was on the Nile, it follows that the Blue River was the Nile. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Shankar, an ordinary young boy from rural India, crosses many skies and seas to explore an altogether different world—africa. There, he joins a seasoned Portuguese Explorer, Diego alvarez on a daring mission. But is the destination worth the toil of the journey? Moreover, will Shankar get to the peak of his mountain of dreams? The Storyline, with a series of adventures, is a testimony to the eternal virtues of courage, curiosity and compassion. It gradually becomes a tantalizing tale of an unusual friendship that evolved in the spectacular but dangerous African forests and grasslands teeming with mysterious wildlife, people and their folklores. Experience this classic adventurous narrative in English that will lead you again to an era of picaro, when one dared to dream. This book has also been adapted into a popular Bengali movie.
