\"Leaving Cairo at the urn of 1880-1881 he (Schuver) proceeded to the Blue Nile, intending to find a new route through to the East African Coast . This ambition was frustrated, mainly because of local political turbulence ... As a result, Schuver remained for the better part of two years in the hills of the upper Blue Nile and the eastern watershed of the White Nile basin. He wrote lively accounts of these regions ...\" Dust-wrapper.
