Items related to Hearts of Darkness: European Exploration of Africa
At the beginning of the 19th century, the interior of Africa was almost entirely unknown to the inhabitants of the "civilized" world. The continent was Nature's last great fortress, made seemingly impregnable by disease, hostile tribes, dangerous animals, extremes of climate and an inhospitable terrain. However, by the middle of the century the era of discovery had unmistakeably dawned. Africa was being opened up by the British, French and Germans, by new technology and feats of bravery. This book offers the reality of exploration, the equipment, the porters, the guns and the dangers. Here too are the explorers, their personalities, their motivation and their astonishing journeys to the heart of the continent.
