This 1840 work was the first detailed account of the colony of British Guiana. Schomburgk surveyed and helped determine its boundaries with Brazil and Venezuela, and explored the interior, discovering many new plant species. He also studied the native tribes, who were suffering from attacks by the Brazilians.
