Cairo to Kisumu;: Cairo--the Sudan--Kenya Colony, (Carpenter's world travels)

Cairo to Kisumu: Egypt-Sudan-Kenya Colony was the fifth in a series of books known as Carpenter's World Travels, written by Frank G. Carpenter (1855-1924) in the 1920s and published by the Garden City, New York, firm of Doubleday, Page & Company. Carpenter was an American author of books on travel and world geography whose geographical readers were popular in American schools in the early 20th century. Cairo to Kisumu is not an account of a single journey, but a composite based on the notes Carpenter made on several trips to Africa over many years. Included are chapters on Egypt, Sudan, the Suez Canal, transport on the Red Sea, Aden (in present-day Yemen), the port of Mombasa, the Uganda Railway, Nairobi, big-game hunting, the British role in East Africa, and the African peoples, including the Kikuyu and the Masai. Carpenter's books reflected the prejudices and preconceptions of his day, but they brought knowledge of the wider world to many Americans. With 115 illustrations from original photographs and two maps in color.
