In Afric's Forest And Jungle: Or Six Years Among The Yorubans (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163609323)

In Afric's Forest And Jungle: Or Six Years Among The Yorubans is a memoir written by Richard H. Stone. The book chronicles Stone's experiences living among the Yoruba people in West Africa for six years. Stone, a Christian missionary, arrived in Africa in 1890 and spent his time there learning the Yoruba language and customs, as well as preaching the Gospel. The book provides a detailed account of life in the Yoruba villages, including their religious practices, social customs, and economic activities. Stone also describes his encounters with various wild animals, including lions and elephants, as well as his travels through the dense forests and jungles of Africa. The book offers a unique perspective on life in Africa during the late 19th century and provides insight into the challenges and rewards of missionary work in a foreign land.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
