Richard Hall presents their remarkable story against the sweeping backdrop of 19th-century Africa, detailing the politics, rivalries, and dangers that defined the great age of exploration. The account captures the romance and obsession that drove the Bakers deep into uncharted territory, from the slave markets of the Sudan to the remote heart of equatorial Africa. Hall illustrates how their journey was as much a personal odyssey as a geographic triumph, weaving together adventure, love, and imperial ambition into a compelling and authoritative narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956380315867,"sku":"2026200008528-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/6f50d1b9-670e-4393-94ee-310347897050.png?v=1783500537","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008528-secondhand-lovers-on-the-nile","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
