Through Uganda to Mount Elgon
Through Uganda to Mount Elgon is a 1909 London travel account by J. B. Purvis, published by T. Fisher Unwin and held in the Smithsonian's Russell E. Train Africana Collection, with a missionary and ethnological interest. Its photographs are plain, documentary halftones with captions beneath or beside each frame, showing groups of people posed in open country, useful to a designer for their unposed, grouped compositions and strong dark-and-light contrast.
