"Westafrikanische Kautschuk-Expedition" by Rudolf Schlechter et al. is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The text documents an expedition aimed at establishing rubber production in the German colonies of Kamerun and Togo, inspired by a growing demand for rubber in various industries. The narrative details the journey of the botanist and rubber expert Rudolf Schlechter, along with his efforts to transport rubber plant varieties and cultivate them in West Africa. The opening of the book sets the stage for the expedition, outlining the motivations behind the journey, such as the deteriorating state of the rubber market and the potential economic benefits of rubber cultivation for the German colonies. It discusses the planning stages prior to departure, including acquiring necessary equipment and consulting with experts on local conditions. As the narrative progresses, it provides insight into the logistical challenges faced by Schlechter and his team as they prepare to venture into the unexplored territories of West Africa, aiming to secure a sustainable future for the rubber industry in their colonies.
