agd1120 's review for:
This book is fine! If you’re really interested in 1800s explorations and feuding, racist British men then you’ll love it. I enjoyed hearing about their harrowing explorations through Africa, but the whole premise of the book is hilarious because they literally just want to be the first European people to discover things in Africa THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DISCOVERED BY AFRICANS. So embarrassing for these dudes honestly.
Best part is Millard exposing the RAMPANT racism and crediting the typically uncredited Africans who made any European accomplishments possible.
