Descripción

1890 AUTHOR S INSCRIPTION Emin Pasha African Exploration Sudan Rebellion Stanley Emin Pasha and the Rebellion at the Equator is a compelling work of historical narration authored by Arthur Jermy Mounteney-Jephson, with the cooperation and revisions of Henry Morton Stanley. The book is a vivid recounting of Jephson s nine-month journey within the last provinces of the Sudan, a period characterized by rebellion, hardship, and unrelenting resilience. Mounteney-Jephson, following his return from Africa, chose to share his intimate experiences with Emin Pasha in the Equatorial Province, in response to persistent requests from friends and contemporaries. The book bridges a critical gap in the expedition s chronicle, offering unparalleled insights into the province, its people, and the intricacies of its governance. Mounteney-Jephson s tale unfolds the reality of Emin Pasha, the province s governor, countering his idealized image in Europe. Despite his reputation as a resistance hero, Emin Pasha s leadership revealed indecisiveness and weakness, as observed during Mounteney-Jephson s extended stay. The book, a mix of adventure, politics, and human resilience, provides a nuanced view of a unique era in African history. This specific copy includes the author s inscription!
