I received my copy today, after great anticipation. After a quick flip-through, my first impressions are very positive. Of course, I assumed it would be on par with the previous volume. Quite a few photos and drawings I haven't seen before, which is exciting to me including a great image of a fortified village with a massively thick tembe-style wall. I've laid off Darkest Africa for quite some time (excepting the batches I did for LPL) and this book has rekindled the flame. Huzzah!
