Hardcover. Condición: Good. No Jacket. Second Edition. 361 pages plus plates and map (complete). An elderly copy of this memoir of one of the most typical of Victorian ventures in Africa. When the Mahdists captured Khartoum, the Egyptian administration of the Sudan collapsed. Equatoria, a deep southern province, near Lake Albert was nearly cut off from the outside world. Emin Pasha, a German doctor and naturalist who was Governor of Equatoria had been able to send and receive letters via Buganda and Zanzibar and had been informed in February 1886 by the Egyptian government that Equatoria was to be abandoned. In July of that year, encouraged by Alexander Mackay, a missionary, felt entitled enough to invite the British government to annexe Equatoria. The government though, was disinterested. Nonetheless, the famously whimsical British public regarded Emin as a second General Gordon who was in mortal danger. By November, Stanley had been approached by a Scottish businessman - of all people - to lead the venture. Stanley was gungo-ho and declared himself to be ready at a "moment's notice". Rose Troup joined him as Stanley's right hand man. This copy has been rebound, with the original spine clothing retained and affixed appropriately.

This was the magnificent end to Stanley's Exploration Career. Sir William Garstin, writing the the Journal of the R.G.S. said of the expedition "The main facts regarding the Sources of the Nile were finally revealed by him, and nothing was left for future explorer's but to fill in details". The Rear Column had been beset with difficulties waiting for the return of Stanley's Advance Column. With the death of Major Bartelot and Jameson, and various desertions, Rose Troup decided to go back to England. Stanley's public criticism of his rear column spurred Troup into print to give his version of events. Because of the contract he signed at the start of the expedition, Stanley took out injunction to supress the book. Troup counter sued, alleging breach of contract, "he never supplied me with the tent, bed, Winchester rifle canteen, and a due share of European provisions. Mr Stanley's failure to fulfil his contract appeared to me to nullify it,". The case was settled out of court and Troup, after an agreed delay, published his book.
