James Hingston Tuckey
First published in 1818, this work comprises memoirs by Captain James Tuckey (1776–1816) and botanist Christen Smith (1785–1818), of their doomed expedition to Africa in 1816. They and their crew died from disease and attack, but their narratives aroused Western interest in Africa, encouraging further research.
