Summary

More
Running through six countries in the middle of Africa, the Congo Basin contains some of the largest tropical rain forests in the world. Dealing with present-day issues of climate change, it is home to bonobo apes, mountain gorillas, forest elephants, and more.

With details about the exploration (and exploitation) by European colonialists and the aftermath of their arrival in the Congo, this book will give readers a better understanding of the second largest rain forest in the world.
