Bound volume 'for Private Circulation only' of 50 pages of typescript reproduced on thin card, illustrated by photographs, measuring 105 x 60 mm, taken (with the exception of plate 1) by the writer. All are dated and, in most cases, timed. The captions have been amplified in some cases from the text of the diary.

This book is the record of a car journey, February-March 1928, when he went on leave by driving from Kano to Mombasa via French Equatorial Africa, the Belgian Congo, the Sudan, Uganda, and Kenya, a journey of nearly 3,500 miles. It provides a lively account of the problems of travel in Africa at that time. There is also an itinerary of the 1927 journey from Lagos (where he bought his car) to Zaria, thence to Katsina, and from Katsina to Kano before the start of his trans-continental journey. A torn fragment of letter suggests that copies were sent to his friends after his death.
