A Journal Of An African Cruiser is a travelogue written by Horatio Bridge, detailing his experiences and observations during his voyage to the West Coast of Africa in the mid-19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different place of interest, such as the Canary Islands, Cape Verde, Liberia, Madeira, and Sierra Leone. Bridge provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, people, and cultures he encounters, as well as his interactions with local authorities and traders. He also offers insights into the slave trade, the impact of colonization, and the challenges faced by European powers in establishing trade and diplomatic relations with African nations. Overall, A Journal Of An African Cruiser provides a valuable historical perspective on the complex and often fraught relationships between Africa and the West during the colonial era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
