Toronto: A.G. Watson, Toronto Willard Tract Depository, Limited. Good. 1891. Reprint. Hardcover. "In writing this book, my aim has been to give a true picture in outline of the Slave-Trade as it exists at the present time on the east coast of Africa. I have selected from the most trustworthy sources what I believe to be the most telling points of 'the trade,' and have woven these together into a tale, the warp of which is composed of thick cords of fact; the woof of slight lines of fiction, just sufficient to hold the fabric together. Exaggeration has easily been avoided, because - as Dr. Livingstone says in regard to the slave-trade - 'exaggeration is imossible.'" - Preface. Early reprint of this title which may have been first published in 1873. pp. vi, [2], 416, 8 [ads]. Complete with six black and white illustrations. Undated but gift greetings upon front free endpaper are dated 1891. No other markings. Back hinge mostly open. Attractively decorated…
