Prima edizione
First Edition, American issue. Illustrated from Col. Long s own sketches including1 photographic Medallion-Portrait as frontispiece, 8 xylographed plates, 13 woodcut illustrations, 1 coloured lithographed folding map. 8vo, publisher s original navy blue cloth , ruled in blind with a portrait vignette of an African warrior in gilt on the upper cover, lettered in gilt on the spine. xvi, 330, 6 ads pp. A very bright and clean copy, unusually fine, no evidence of foxing, very slight mellowing, especially well preserved. AN UNCOMMON TITLE AND RARE IN THIS CONDITION. Long served several years in the Egyptian army under Ismaïl Pacha, the European-educated and "enlightened" Khedive of Egypt, during which time he embarked on these two expeditions west of the White Nile. Within these pages he relates details of his daily journeys, notes on native dress and customs, and narratives of exciting adventures concerning hostile natives, violent weather, sheiks palaces, and many other things. It is supplemented nicely by illustrations from Long s own drawings. This work is seldom seen, particularly in such nice condition.
