Aggiungi al carrelloFirst edition, inscribed by the author on the verso of the limitation page, "Yours Faithfully M. French-Sheldon Bébé Bwana", stamped number 1,293 (of an unspecified number of copies printed) on the recto with the printed signature of H. H. Boyce, Business Manager of Arena Publishing Company, beneath. This is an ethnography of a…safari led by American author and explorer May French-Sheldon (1847-1936) in 1891 from Mombasa to the Masai lands, which included an expedition around the base of Mount Kilimanjaro and the circumnavigation of the previously unexplored crater lake named Chala. For the latter she became the first woman to be elected a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society in 1892. "French-Sheldon's speaking engagements following her return from her expedition in the summer of 1891 produced effusive reviews in the popular press, demonstrating the fiery impact she had on popular audiences. Reviewers credited her with being 'a woman of rare ability' (Journal, Boston) and 'a woman of singular force of character' (Express, Buffalo). However singular she seemed in her manner and delivery, reviewers' comments indicate growing audience awareness of and appreciation for women travelers' accomplishments when they proclaimed her 'the most celebrated woman traveler in the world' (Washington Star). Although few female travelers would achieve the popular renown that French-Sheldon did in the 1890s, in fact, she was one of perhaps several hundred British or American 'adventuresses' during the 19th century who traveled outside of Europe or North America with aspirations of engaging in geographical or ethnographic exploration" (Boisseau, p. 22). Robinson, p. 27 ("one of the most colourful characters in the history of African exploration"); see Manchester University Press edition of Sultan to Sultan introduced by Tracey Jean Boisseau, 1999. Large octavo. Photographic frontispiece with tissue guard, 26 full-page black-and-white plates, many photographic and line-drawn illustrations to the text. Original red cloth over bevelled boards, spine and front cover lettered in gilt, floral patterned endpapers. Spine slightly faded, ends bumped, a little marking to covers, internally clean, a very good copy.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In the last half of the nineteenth century, Africa was still the 'dark continent,' with large areas of its territory unmapped. Tribes in many regions had not been subdued, and from their initial contacts with Arab slavers and Western ex…plorers, they were often hostile to foreigners. Diseases against which outsiders had no immunities had been named but not cured. Roads and even trails were almost nonexistent. But these very obstacles made Africa an irresistible challenge to adventurers. Most, of course, were men, but one of the more remarkable, unconventional, and brave of these explorers was a middle-aged American woman by the name of May French Sheldon, who in 1891 planned and led an expedition to East Africa. For her it was not enough just to follow the trail of the male explorers. Her aim was to prove that women could do whatever men could do.May contributed learned papers on little-known topics such as the navigation of Lake Chala, and she made some of the first ethnographic studies of African women and children. It is the latter work which today stands out as a major accomplishment. Along with her contemporary Mary Kingsley, Sheldon was among the first white people to describe Africans and African culture sympathetically.
