Paul Belloni Du Chaillu (1831-1903) was an American anthropologist, traveller, and zoologist who became famous as the first outsider to confirm the existence of gorillas, and later of the Pygmy people of central Africa. From 1855 until 1859, he explored equatorial West Africa, and was offered warm hospitality by King Mombo who ruled a area in what is called Gabon today.
The author’s descriptions of the vegetation of the rain forest and the way of life of the people are vivid and engaging. The narratives are filled with images of hunting, canoe rides, and encounters with wild animals like lions, leopards, elephants and gorillas.
