The article discusses the book "The Wild Tribes of the Soudan: An Account of Travel and Sport, Chiefly in the Basé Country. Being Personal Experiences and Adventures During Three Winters in the Soudan," by F.L. James. According to the article, Sudan is a vast region of rivers and plains, deserts and jungles, which extends from the river Nile indefinitely westward, and comprehends many provinces and peoples. Between these two is a hilly, broken country, in a part of which dwell the Basé. The style of the book is clumsy, ungrammatical, colloquial and inelegant.
