''Three Years In Savage Africa'' is a non-fiction book written by Lionel Decle, first published in 1898. The book chronicles the author’s experiences during his three-year expedition through the African continent, from 1892 to 1895. Decle’s journey takes him through various regions of Africa, including the Congo, Uganda, and the Sudan. The book provides a detailed account of the people, cultures, and landscapes that Decle encounters during his travels. He describes the customs and beliefs of the various tribes he meets, as well as the challenges he faces in navigating the terrain and dealing with the local wildlife. Throughout the book, Decle also reflects on the impact of European colonization on Africa and the tensions that arise between colonial powers and local populations. He provides insights into the political and economic landscape of the region, as well as the social and cultural changes that are taking place.Overall, ''Three Years In Savage Africa'' is a fascinating and informative account of one man’s journey through a continent that was still largely unexplored at the time. It offers a unique perspective on the history and culture of Africa, as well as a glimpse into the challenges and rewards of exploration in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
