Octavo, black cloth (hardcover), gilt lettering, xi, 454 pp. Very Good in a Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: This is a first-hand account of the expedition led by H. M. Stanley in 1887-89 to the relief of Emin Pasha, Governor of Equatoria. A. J. Mounteney Jephson, a typical late Victorian traveller, took part in Stanley's last expedition in Africa. His recently-discovered diary describes the voyage out to the mouth of the Congo; the journey up the Congo and across the Ituri forests to Lake Albert; the meeting with Emin Pasha; the mutiny of Emin's troops and their impreisonment of Emin and Jeophson; and the journey back to the East coast. Though it fell short of its political and commercial aims, the expedition was important geographically as it solved the last mystery of African topography -- the position and nature of the sources of the Nile. At least two-thirds of the diary is given in full, with clearly-indicated cuts only n the portion where Jeophson and Emin were imprisoned by the mutineers, a period covered by Jeophson's own book, emin Pasha (1890). In her introduction Mrs. Middleton describes Jeophson's family background and summarizes the political events of the time: the 'scramble for Africa' by the European Powers which formed the background for the expedition.
