Item description from seller

Neuware - ''A Letter to the Publisher of the Quarterly Review: And of a Dissertation on the Course and Probable Termination of the Niger'' is a book written by Rufane Shaw Donkin in 1829. The book is a response to an article published in the Quarterly Review, which criticized the British government's efforts to explore the Niger River in West Africa. Donkin, who was a British army officer and explorer, argues in his letter that the exploration of the Niger River is important for the expansion of British trade and commerce in Africa.The book also includes Donkin's dissertation on the course and probable termination of the Niger River, which he based on his own observations and the reports of other explorers. Donkin provides a detailed description of the geography, climate, and people of the region through which the Niger flows. He also discusses the potential benefits of exploring the river, including the discovery of new trade routes and the suppression of the slave trade.Overall, ''A Letter to the Publisher of the Quarterly Review: And of a Dissertation on the Course and Probable Termination of the Niger'' is an important historical document that sheds light on the British government's colonial ambitions in Africa and the role of explorers in expanding European influence on the continent.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
