Made from UK sheets with small Lippincott spine imprint ("J.B.L. & Co."). The 1866 UK first was in a two volume format. "The discovery of the Albert Nyanza was the most remarkable feat accomplished in Baker's adventurous career; the work of Speke and Grant was thus completed, and the source of the Nile freed from mystery. Baker's name will ever be associated with the solution of the problem of the Nile source. The fact also that the whole expedition had been independently devised and the charges thereof defrayed by the traveller added not a little to the honor of his achievement. [His account] immediately became popular, and many editions have been issued" (DNB). 1.5 kg parcel; Octavo .
