“For about a year I and my youngest brother had resided at Chartum, the capital of Bellad-Sudan, in the district of Sennaar, at which place we had arrived after a journey of three months, from Cairo.”

“Of all my brothers, Joseph was the dearest to me, and loved me in turn most devotedly.”

RESTORED MAPPED EPUB · ORIGINAL FOLD-OUT MAP

Ferdinand Werne's vivid 1852 account follows an expedition from Sennaar and Khartoum along the Atbara toward Taka, Basa and Beni-Amer. It combines river and desert travel, camp life, illness, wildlife, political encounters and close observation of nineteenth-century eastern Sudan.

This Nile Book Store edition includes:
the complete 14-chapter English text and appendix; the genuine original map “The Land of Bellad-Sudan”; clean reflowable typography; linked contents; and a bright new contemporary cover.

Map preview: The gallery includes the genuine fold-out map from the 1852 edition, not a newly invented illustration.

Historical context: This nineteenth-century European expedition account includes dated and sometimes offensive descriptions of ethnicity, religion, gender, warfare and enslavement. It is presented unabridged for historical and research value.
