Описание: This 1840 work was the first detailed account of the colony of British Guiana. Schomburgk surveyed and helped determine its boundaries with Brazil and Venezuela, and explored the interior, discovering many new plant species. He also studied the native tribes, who were suffering from attacks by the Brazilians.

Описание: This important book, first published in 1826, brings together the memoirs of three explorers, Major Dixon Denham (1786-1828), Lieutenant Hugh Clapperton (1788-1827) and Dr Walter Oudney (1790-1824), to document the first complete crossing of the Sahara in recorded history, and provide unique insights into pre-colonial Africa.
