A 1904 London biography published by the Religious Tract Society, written by E. S. Wakefield about the missionary and explorer Thomas Wakefield, aimed at a general religious readership interested in East Africa. The pictures are plain black-and-white plates: a Galla warrior with a spear and a sketched group of Galla men, a diagram of a thorn-fenced village with huts and folds, and a small engraved dhow under sail, offering a designer ethnographic line drawings and simple schematic maps.
