Published 1822–4, this highly influential two-volume account of the interior of southern Africa derives from the journal kept by William John Burchell (1781–1863) during the first year of a 4,500-mile expedition from 1811 to 1815. It describes landscapes, flora and fauna, and the lives of indigenous peoples encountered.
