Item Details

Description

Voyage dans l'Interieur de l'Afrique, fait en 1795, 1796 et 1797, par MUNGO PARK
par J. Castera.
Paris, Dentu u.a. "An VIII" ( 1800).
2 volumes, later different bindings, spines repaired, good interior
Illustrated with plates and maps
Copper plate (portrait), XII, 411 p.;
2 lvs, 376 pp.

Mungo Park (1771 – 1806) was a Scottish explorer of West Africa. After an exploration of the upper Niger River around 1796, he wrote a popular and influential travel book titled Travels in the Interior Districts of Africa in which he theorized the Niger and Congo merged to become the same river, though it was later proven that they are different rivers. He was killed during a second expedition, having successfully travelled about two-thirds of the way down the Niger.
If the African Association was the "beginning of the age of African exploration" then Mungo Park was its first successful explorer; he set a standard for all who followed. Park was the first Westerner to have recorded travels in the central portion of the Niger, and through his popular book introduced the public to a vast unexplored continent which influenced future European explorers and colonial ambitions in Africa.
