Lennard’s Leader: Or On The Track Of The Emin Relief Expedition is a historical book written by Edward Newenham Hoare in 1890. The book follows the journey of Lennard, a British explorer, as he sets out to rescue Emin Pasha, the governor of Equatoria who was besieged by Mahdist forces during the 1885�������1890 Mahdist War. The book is based on Hoare’s personal experience as he accompanied the expedition as a correspondent for The Times. The book provides a detailed account of the expedition, including the challenges faced by the explorers, the dangers they encountered, and the difficult terrain they had to navigate. It also sheds light on the political and social context of the time, as well as the interactions between the British explorers and the local African tribes. Lennard’s Leader is a fascinating and informative read that offers a unique perspective on one of the most important expeditions of the late 19th century. The book is a testament to the bravery and determination of the explorers who risked their lives to rescue Emin Pasha and highlights the importance of exploration and discovery in shaping our understanding of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
