Ismailia raconte le récit d’une expédition menée par Sir Samuel White Baker en Afrique centrale. L’objectif principal de cette expédition était l’abolition de la traite des Noirs et la suppression de l’esclavage dans les régions explorées. Le livre offre un aperçu détaillé des défis rencontrés, des cultures rencontrées, et des efforts déployés pour éradiquer cette pratique inhumaine. À travers ce récit, Baker offre une perspective unique sur l’Afrique du XIXe siècle, mêlant aventures, observations ethnographiques et plaidoyer humanitaire. 'Ismailia' demeure un témoignage important de l’histoire de l’abolition de l’esclavage et des explorations européennes en Afrique.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
