By C. W. L. BULPETT. Being a Sketch of a Winter’s Trip to some of the Unknown Waters of the Upper Nile. _Demy 8vo. With Illustrations and Map._ =12s. 6d. net.= The object of the expedition described in this book was to survey the Musha and Boma plateaux, which lie between the River Akobo and Lake Rudolf. It was organized by Mr. W. N. McMillan, an experienced American traveller, and was remarkably successful, though the fact that one of the caravans marched thirty-eight days on half-rations, largely through a country flooded by incessant rain, shows that the excursion was very far from being altogether a picnic. Mounts Ungwala and Naita were ascended, and hundreds of square miles of previously unexplored country were surveyed and mapped. The accounts of the abundance of game will make the sportsman’s mouth water. A considerable amount of the description of scenery and life on the Nile and Sobat is extracted from the journal of Mrs. McMillan, who accompanied her husband. Many of the illustrations are from drawings made on the spot by Mr. Jessen, cartographer of the expedition. * * * * * TIPPOO TIB. The Story of a Central African Despot. Narrated from his own accounts by Dr. HEINRICH BRODE. _Demy 8vo. With Portrait._ =10s. 6d. net.= In the course of a prolonged residence at Zanzibar as consular representative of Germany, Dr. Brode became intimately acquainted with the celebrated adventurer Tippoo Tib, and succeeded in inducing him to write the story of his life. This he did, in Swaheli, using Arabic characters, which Dr. Brode transcribed for translation into German. The material thus supplied by Tippoo Tib has been expanded by Dr. Brode into a remarkable picture of Africa before and during its transition into the hands of the white man. * * * * * THE PRINCES OF ACHAIA AND THE CHRONICLES OF MOREA.
