Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -'A Journal of a Tour in the Congo Free State' by Marcus R. P. Dorman offers a detailed account of the author's journey through the Congo Free State in the early 20th century. Initially skeptical of the Congo Free State's government, Dorman's perspective shifts favorably after witnessing the region's conditions firsthand. The narrative begins with Dorman's departure from England, joining Lord Mountmorres on an expedition to explore the Congo and engage in big game hunting. The journey is marked by the challenges of preparing for travel in a tropical environment, including acquiring suitable equipment and provisions. Upon arrival in the Congo, Dorman describes the vibrant yet challenging landscape, the local customs, and the administrative structure of the Congo Free State. He provides insights into the infrastructure, such as the railway from Matadi to Leopoldville, and the efforts to develop the region. Dorman also addresses the controversies surrounding the Congo Free State, particularly the allegations of forced labor and mistreatment of natives. Through interactions with officials, missionaries, and traders, he presents a nuanced view of the situation, acknowledging both the criticisms and the efforts to improve conditions. The journal serves as a historical document, capturing the complexities of colonial administration and the diverse experiences of those living and working in the Congo during this period.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 112 pp. Englisch.
