Description

1857 Lake Ngami South African Hunting & Exploration AFRICA Fremont Illustrated

"Few, if any, books give so full and complete an account of Namaqualand, Damaraland, and the Ovampo country, and the description of these countries is absolutely unequaled"

Charles Andersson was a Swedish explorer and naturalist. He is most famous for the many books he published about his travels and for being one of the most notable explorers of southern Africa, specifically Namibia.

This 1857 edition of ‘Lake Ngami’ describes Andersson’s exploration through South Western Africa, at the time little explored by Europeans with an introductory letter by John Charles Fremont. It is filled with 55 illustrations of hunting, natural history, and more!
