Khont-Hon-Nofer - The Lands of Ethiopia

By Hermann Karl Wilhelm Kumm

Book Overview

First published in 1910, "Khont-Hon-Nofer - The Lands of Ethiopia" is a fascinating account of the author's experiences journeying through central Africa on missionary work. He pays special attention to religious and ethical questions throughout, exploring day-to-day life on the continent at the turn of the twentieth century. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in African life, history, and culture; and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "The Baby Nations of the World", "Preparations for a Trans-African Journey", "A Lesson in Geography, and a Visit to the Sudan United Mission Stations", "A Day's Work", "From Northern Nigeria to the Nile-From the Benue to Bor", "Hunting in Africa, Slaves and Animals (Freed Slaves' Home)", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
