Description

This Routledge Research in Travel Writing volume examines eyewitness travel reports documenting atrocities committed in European-funded slave regimes across the Congo Free State, Portuguese West Africa, and the Putumayo district during the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. The book draws on evidence produced by British explorers, missionaries, consuls, journalists, soldiers, and traders who witnessed colonial violence firsthand. Their accounts span multiple formats including travelogues, ethnographic monographs, consular reports, diaries, letters, sketches, and photography, providing crucial historical documentation of misrule and exploitation. This scholarly work offers essential insights into how eyewitness narratives shaped understanding of colonialism's devastating human costs and remains vital for historians, travel writing scholars, and those studying colonial violence and its documentation.
