"To write down all the habits and customs that prevail in Africa would
need the whole of the space in this book, and this is merely the introduction
to it; but it is to be hoped that what has been said of the tribes of Central Africa
may help the reader to more fully understand the troubled and trials which Stanley
had to undergo, and the difficulties and dangers which he had to pass through
during his last journey across Africa."
