Por ? Doutor em medicina. Com uma introdução e annotações em 2 volumes. Vertida do Inglez. Por M. G. C. L. Volume Primeiro [e Volume Segundo] Tipographia da Revista. Porto. 1850. 2 volumes in 8º de 19,5x13 cm. com 251; 210 págs. Encadernação da época com lombadas em pele. Contém prefácio do tardutor, introdução de H. Evans Lloyd datada de 1845, preambulo do professor Carl Ritter datado de Berlim do mesmo ano, prefácio do autor, apêndices e erratas. O autor visitou os territórios portugueses integrado numa expedição comercial do Cônsul Geral português em Altona que partiu no ano de 1841. Na obra descreve Cabo Verde, São Tomé e Principe, Ilha de Ano Bom e Angola. Trata-se de um dos primeiros documentos que manifesta o crescente interesse do mundo europeu pela exploração dos recursos do continente africano. É por isso uma importante fonte para o estudo da corrida pelo domínio de África nos seus primórdios. Nela o autor juntamente com pormenorizadas descrições da natureza e das populações manifesta um forte preconceito contra Portugal e contra a religião católica acentuando todos os pormenores que possam deixar mal vistos os portugueses e a administração portuguesa.
