Excerpt from The Victoria Nyanza: The Land, the Races and Their Customs, With Specimens of Some of the Dialects I am aware that on some points my records are at variance with those of other travellers, but must leave it to experts to investigate this divergence, and account for it. I, for my part, am content merely to give an accurate and faithful description of my own observations, and of the information given me by the natives. I shall feel myself abundantly rewarded if, by contributing my mite, I have enriched science with any new and interesting facts. In conclusion, I express my thanks to Dr. Weule and Mr. Ankermann for the great trouble they have taken in ordering, sifting, and arranging my collection in the Berlin Museum, and to the latter gentleman especially for the excellent and painstaking drawings he has made, which were indispensably necessary for the publication of this work.
