The Sweetness of Home and Africa Explorations
A long miscellany piece extols domestic happiness and praises home life, then shifts to Africa exploration reports from Liberia to Kilimanjaro. Missionaries are credited with civilizing efforts and opening new trade routes, while notes on Kilimanjaro and Nile connections emerge from explorers. Also included are vignettes on marriage advice, clever thefts, sea voyage tales, and flax cotton advances.
