"It was at first my intention, when I set out for the interior of Western Africa, to explore anew the countries which Mungo Park had visited; but … I resolved to strike out a new track; and after penetrating into the continent, I followed a line parallel to the meridian. The regions which I had to traverse in pursuing this direction, were almost unknown, and afforded scope for observations equally numerous and interesting.” |
