Raphael is a travelogue written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the author’s journey through Nigeria, capturing the intricate details of a country undergoing significant administrative changes and cultural shifts brought on by colonial governance. Raphael offers keen insights into the daily life of the inhabitants, as well as the impact of European presence on indigenous practices. The opening of the travelogue introduces the reader to the author's perspective as he sets off on his journey from England to West Africa. He describes the exciting yet uncomfortable experience of traveling by ship, the allure of the unknown landscape, and the various characters encountered along the way, particularly the crew of Krumen sailors. The author highlights both the challenges and the charm of the journey, presenting a vivid picture of coastal life and the preliminary thoughts that shape his explorations as he arrives in Nigeria. He reflects on the complexity of the land, the historical context of its colonization, and the myriad of cultural practices he anticipates discovering in his adventure.
