Considered one of the greatest European explorers of Africa, German scholar Heinrich Barth was appointed to the James Richardson expedition, which was tasked by the British government to establish commercial relations in the Sudan and Lake Chad regions. After the deaths of Richardson and Prussian astronomer Adolf Overweg from fever and malaria, Barth continued the mission, travelling from Tripoli to Cameroon and from Lake Chad to Timbuktu, providing much academic information on topography, languages and culture, history and resources of the areas explored, still in use by African historians today.

Denham (Major Dixon & Captain Hugh Clapperton). Narrative of Travels and Discoveries in Northern and Central Africa, in the Years 1822, 1823, and 1824, by Major Denham, Captain Clapperton, and the Late Doctor Oudney, extending across the Great Desert to the Tenth Degree of Northern Latitude, and from Kouka in Bornou, to Sackatoo, the Capital of the Fellatah Empire. With an Appendix, 1st edition, 1826, engraved frontispiece, 37 engraved plates & maps (plate 6 in two states, one hand-coloured), plates on india paper, folding map at end, wood-engraved illustrations, small marginal repaired tears to pages 87 & 243, some light offsetting, small mainly marginal water stain to a few plates, top edge gilt, contemporary tan calf by Sotheran, neatly rebacked with original gilt spine relaid, edges slightly rubbed, 4to Lowndes I, page 629. The Earl of Derby's copy (his bookplate to front pastedown), and one of a few special issues on india paper. Oudney and Clapperton set out on an official expedition to discover the course of the Niger river, but starting from Tripoli rather than West Africa. Denham joined the party in Murzuk in 1822 which eventually arrived at Lake Chad and afterwards Kuka (Kukawa in Nigeria), then capital of the Bornu Empire. After surveys of the area, Oudney died at Murmur, and Clapperton proceeded alone to Kano and Sokota, but was prevented travelling further westwards by the sultan. He was rejoined by Denham at Kuka and both returned to Tripoli in 1825. Acrimonious relations had developed between Clapperton and Denham and they exchanged not a single word during the 133 day return journey. (1)
