Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the second great journey of Captain Bottego in East Africa. The author, one of the four Europeans who set out from Brava in 1895, provides a narrative of the journey, geographical discoveries, and interactions with local tribes. They successfully solved the long-debated question of the termination of the Omo River, whose headstreams flow southwards from the Abyssinian highlands. Valuable information was also gathered on the geography of the region, including the discovery of Lake Pagade (or Margherita), which is separated from Lake Chamo by a narrow strip of land. The account offers insights into the beauty and fertility of the region and the challenges faced by the expedition, including suspicious natives and the presence of an Abyssinian force. The book enriches our understanding of this part of Africa and highlights the significance of exploration in expanding geographical knowledge.
