What fascinating accounts! Thanks for “discovering” them for all of us who’ve never heard of these intrepid individuals. I know the primary sources existed long ago, if we’d cared to pursue them, but works like yours really are a discovery for casual readers like me. Thanks again

You’ve outdone yourself this time, a great article. Thanks for the opportunity to see the full picture after having read so many books about European visitors and explorers to Africa.
