Richard Burton, the great explorer, describes Zanzibar, its city, island, and coast, the spice-scented hub of the East African slave and ivory trade and gateway to the interior. His learned, unsparing eye misses nothing. A rich firsthand study for anyone drawn to Africa, exploration, and the world of the Indian Ocean.
