From a later edition: "Thrice through the Dark Continent is a book written by Johannes Du Plessis that documents his journey across Africa during the years 1913-1916. The book is a detailed account of his travels and experiences as he traversed the continent, encountering various cultures, landscapes, and wildlife along the way. Du Plessis' journey took him through some of the most remote and dangerous regions of Africa, including the Sahara Desert, the Congo Basin, and the Kalahari Desert. The book offers a unique perspective on the African continent during a time of great change, as European colonial powers were expanding their influence and indigenous cultures were struggling to survive. Thrice through the Dark Continent is a fascinating read for anyone interested in African history, travel, or adventure".
