Abstract:
This volume is a new edition of a work by Assistant Staff Surgeon Peter McLachlan, published in Freetown (Sierra Leone) in 1821. It was one of the first monographs published in tropical Africa and the first systematic attempt to describe the Baga and Susu. This edition is supplemented by an introduction, extensive annotation, maps, figures and an appendix. It also includes a substantial bibliography relating to the Baga peoples of coastal Guinea-Conakry.
