von Wissmann in Africa
« on: December 17, 2011, 01:32:39 AM »
Came across this free download of an English translation of Hermann von Wissmann's book My Second Journey Through Equatorial Africa from the Congo to the Zambesi in the Years 1886 and 1887.  (What a mouthful!) There are a few dozen illustrations and a map showing his three expeditions.  Might interest a few members of this part of the LAF.

There's also a German version if you prefer.
