 Illustrations. Fourth and Cheaper Edition. Crown 8vo. 6s. 



Sir Samuel Baker here describes huelve months' 1 exploration, during 

 which he examined the rivers that are tributary to the Nile from Abyssinia, 

 including the Atbara, Setiite, Royan, Salaa?n, Angrab, Rahad, Dinder, 

 and the Blue Nile. The interest attached to these portions of Africa differs 

 entirely from that of the White Nile regions, as the whole of Upper Egypt 

 and Abyssinia is capable of development, and is inhabited by races having 

 some degree of civilization; while Central Africa is peopled by a race oj 

 savages, whose future is more problematical.
