The Albert N'yanza : great basin of the Nile, and explorations of the Nile sources
The Albert N'yanza is a 1866 London travel narrative by the explorer Samuel White Baker, published by Macmillan, recounting his expedition to the Nile sources and Lake Albert for a British readership. Its wood-engraved pictures show African people and landscapes in plain black line, with figures posed full length against sparse backgrounds, offering a designer examples of early ethnographic line illustration with clear silhouettes and hatched shading.
