		This photograph of a group of Ndebele (Matabele) boys was taken at a time of upheavel for the tribe. War had broken out in 1893 between the Matabele kingdom in the country today called Zimbabwe and the British South Africa Company. Lobengula, king of the Ndebele, avoided a larger conflict because he knew the destructive power of British guns. However, in January 1894 Lobengula died of smallpox, the Ndebele warriors submitted to the British South Africa Company and an order on July 18, 1894, ceded power of the company over Matabeleland. The House of Commons brought charges accusing the company of provoking the Matabele to war so their land could be seized, but Lord Ripon, the Colonial Secretary, exonerated the company and Cecil Rhodes, its leader. In 1895 Zimbabwe became Rhodesia in his honor. That same year the rebuilt town of Bulawayo had 1,900 colonial residents and the goldfields were filled with 2,000 prospectors. Approx. 5 1/2 x 4". Inscription on verso in pencil reads "Group of Matabeles in Bulawayo."

		A strong, bright impression of this handsome map with the date 1570 (but published in 1592) & latin text on the verso.  First published in Ortelius's ground-breaking atlas "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum", the drawing of the far eastern coast of Brazil, shown as well below the Equator, differs significantly from the World and America maps, this map based on the Gastaldi map of 1564.  A magnificent sea battle rages in the Indian Ocean and sea monsters prowl the in the Atlantic.  Over 30 editions were published in several languages.  Ortelius died in 1598, and he personally updated the text in each printing until his death - thereafter the text was not changed.  Black & white copper engraving (as issued), measuring 19 3/4x 14 3/4" with nice margins.  An extremely strong, dark impression, printed on thick, laid paper with a crossed arrows watermark.   Van den Broecke 8, 1592L4; Tooley, Africa, p.88.  In perfect condition."The atlas 'Theatrum Orbis Terrarum' is considered to be the first true modern atlas. Written by Abraham Ortelius and originally printed on May 20, 1570, in Antwerp, it consisted of a collection of uniform map sheets and sustaining text bound to form a book for which copper printing plates were specifically engraved. The Ortelius atlas is sometimes referred to as the summary of sixteenth-century cartography. Many of his atlas' maps were based upon sources that no longer exist or are extremely rare. "  Wikipedia.

Roy. 8vo, 2 vols. &#91;xviii] 412pp (&) &#91;viii] 468pp, 1 fold. map and in all, 12 tinted plates, ills. in text. Bound in original orange brick cloth, gilt stamped title. Spines slt. darkened, a bit bumped & rubbed at extremes. A very good copy overall. First edition of a book which recounted a Royal Geographical Society expedition in Tanganyika that captured the minds of the Victorians. Burton's was the first account published of the expedition with Captain Speke. 'In the Victorian age explorers' books exerted an extraordinary power over people's minds: they supplied the drama and the entertainment that now largely belongs to the documentary cinema and television... These books tended to be immensely personal and were propaganda of a kind...In the 'sixties the great outpouring of these African publications began. Burton's Lake Regions of Central Africa appeared in 1860, and in 1863 Speke's Journal of the Source of the Nile was shortly followed by his What led to the Discovery of the Source of the Nile... Burton, who was first in the field with his Lake Regions (his account with Speke to Tanganyika), said in later years that he rather regretted some of the things he wrote, but he had been exasperated by two articles which Speke had contributed to Blackwood's Magazine on his return to England in 1859. In these articles Speke first put forward his idea that Lake Victoria was the source of the Nile, and this seemed to Burton to make nonsense of the whole expedition...' (Moorehead, The White Nile). Burton was highly offended at what he viewed as his subordinate's self-promotion at Burton's expense. Penzer p. 65; Hoover 207.

		The city of Beira was developed by the Portuguese Mozambique Company, which was founded in 1891 as a royal company in this Portuguese colony.  In Beira the Company ran the post office & public administration, and founded a bank, but took advantage of local conscripted labor.  Beira also played an important role as a key port and railroad terminus for the British land locked territories of Zambesia, Southern Rhodesia and Nyasaland. The Beira Railway was formed in 1892; by 1890 Cecil Rhodes had already pushed into the region around Salisbury (Harare) and the settlers there were demanding dependable transport.These photographs date from the colonial period in which the Mozambique Company administered Beira.  Photographs taken by C. E. Hogg.  Thirteen b&w photographs, 4 3/4 x 3 3/4" with titles handwritten on the verso.  The titles are as follows: 'Beira' (a view of the city taken from the Indian Ocean); 'a street in the native village', 'men gathering coconuts', 'mother and child', 'Mozambique natives, the elder age 12 + 2 years married, the younger a rescued slave child';  'a rescued slave girl'; 'Mozambique' (no further title; photo is of sailboats pulled up on a beach); 'Mozambique' (no title; photo is city harbor, taken from the water looking toward the city);  'hotel proprietor, Beira'; 'Gardens, Mozambique'; 'Mozambique boys'; 'Market, Mozambique'; and 'Mozambique hospital'.  A few marks at the corners of some photographs, where they were removed from an album; one photo with a diagonal tear ('Gardens'), o/w quite bright.

Original green pictorial cloth gilt & blind stamped. Head of spine worn otherwise surprising bright and untouched. Abbey Travel 524 cites the 1st edition as Croydon 1858, with more text & 19 lithographed plates. Possibly a remainder edition, printed with less accompanying text, the plates just as stunning. Splendid seascapes & ship life, views of Calcutta, Bombay Harbor, Ceylon, Mauritius, Tristan da Cunha, Trinidad. A very clean copy of this beautiful and unusual book.
