"Beiträge zur Entdeckung und Erforschung Africa's" by Gerhard Rohlfs is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work chronicles the author's explorations and observations in Africa between 1870 and 1875, detailing various aspects of the continent's geography, cultures, and peoples, particularly focusing on architectural styles and social interactions. The opening of the book discusses the construction and significance of the Suez Canal, reflecting on both its engineering challenges and the various opinions that surrounded it during its development. Rohlfs provides an overview of the political and financial negotiations involved in its completion, describing the project's scale and the labor force required, including the use of native workers. The narrative sets the stage for an exploration of the geographic and cultural landscape of Africa, indicating Rohlfs' intention to delve into the intricate tapestry of African life and the intersections of colonial ambitions with local practices.
