Sehr seltene erste Ausgabe. - Jameson was a member of Henry Stanley's expedition to relieve the Emin Pasha and part of the ill-fated rear guard at Yambuya. The Rear-guard was supposed to have resupplied Stanley's expedition, but disease and the treachery of the Chief Tippu-Tib kept them from making their rondevous with Stanley. By the time Stanley returned to find them, all but one European was dead. Jameson died of fever. - These letters and diaries, edited by his wife are an attempt to rebut the accusations as well a publish the extensive notes that Jameson took on the expedition.
