Synopsis
Excerpt from The Fall of the Congo Arabs
During the present century, many circumstances have combined to make the Zanzibar Arabs the most noted slave-hunters and slave-dealers in the world. Of their earlier history little is definitely known, beyond the fact that already in the tenth century there were Arab settlements along the East Coast of Africa.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the dramatic clash between the Arab slave trade and European colonialism in Central Africa, specifically focusing on the Congo Free State. The author recounts his personal experiences as a medical officer in the Congo Free State forces, providing vivid firsthand accounts of the dangerous journeys, the brutal realities of war, and the complex dynamics of power in the region. As the Europeans aimed to establish their control over the region, they were met with fierce resistance from the Arabs, who had long dominated the ivory and slave trade. The book offers a unique perspective on the history of colonialism in Africa, exploring not just the military conflicts, but also the cultural clashes, the impact on local populations, and the complex interplay of politics and economics in the region. The author's insights into the challenges of governing a vast and unexplored territory, managing diverse populations, and navigating the complexities of intercultural relations provide a rich and compelling account of a crucial era in African history.
