Abstract
MR. DUFF has written a very charming and illuminative book on Nyasaland, otherwise known as the British Central Africa Protectorate, where, since the beginning of 1898, he has resided as an official. His acquaintance with the little protectorate of 43,000 square miles was mainly limited to the Shire Province and the west coast of Lake Nyasa, but Mr. Duff is made of the same stuff as the late Prof. Henry Drummond—he is able to take in many salient points at a glance and to see things which da not strike the ordinary traveller or resident. (Whatever may be thought of Henry Drummond's later writings by scientific men, no scientific man acquainted with Africa can fail to regard his little work on Central Africa as one of the most remarkable contributions to the literature of the Dark Continent which has ever been published.)
