V p. 251; otherwise very good in original green cloth, gilt lettering to spines, brown endpapers with advertisements to pastedowns; vols I, II and III rebacked with spines laid down, corners repaired, a few light marks to boards, bookplates removed from front pastedowns.First edition of Barth's unparalleled and authoritative account of western Sudan, and his remarkable 10,000-mile journey from Tripoli to Timbuktu, illustrated with 15 maps, 60 tinted lithograph plates, and numerous wood engravings. 'The material he collected constitutes a mine of original research which is still, in many respects, the standard work on the subjects he covered' (The Geographical Journal132:1, March 1966, p. 73). Born in Hamburg, Heinrich Barth (1821-1865) studied history, archaeology, geography and Arabic, and was fluent in several European languages. In 1849, he joined the explorer James Richardson and the geologist Adolf Overweg on a British-sponsored expedition to what is now central West Africa, a mission which aimed to open the interior to trade and to study the slave trade. Despite ill health and the loss of both his colleagues, Barth travelled for five years before his return, laying down accurate routes, discovering the Benue River (the major tributary of the Niger River), and recording kingdoms that were previously unknown to Europeans. Barth was the first European to use the oral traditions of the local tribes for historical research, learning several African languages, and studying the history, resources and civilisations of the people he encountered, as well as recording information about foodstuffs and market goods, local economies and systems of government. A fluent English speaker, Barth wrote Travels and Discoveries as an original English work and simultaneously produced an account of his African exploration in German (Reisen und Entdeckungen in Nord und Central Africa in den Jahren 1849-1855, Gotha, 1857-8), the former not being a translation of the latter. Travels and Discoveries remains one of the most comprehensive works on central Africa, and, despite receiving recognition from his peers across Europe, his work never received the public appreciation in Britain that it deserved during his lifetime. The length and density of Barth's work some 3500 pages of closely-observed nature, culture and ethnography failed to suit the tastes of the British public, and, although he managed to accomplish one of the greatest expeditions of the nineteenth century which was lauded in his native Germany, the British preferred their heroes home-grown and the book failed to achieve the popular acclaim that Livingstone and Stanley created.Abbey, Travel in aquatint and lithography, 274; Ibrahim-Hilmy I, p. 53.
