3 large folding maps as well as 55 plates, 3 plans and 4 leaves of Ethiopian dialect script throughout all James Bruce (14 December 1730 27 April 1794) was a Scottish traveller and travel writer who spent more than a dozen years in North Africa and Ethiopia, where he traced the origins of the Blue Nile. Starting out as a wine importer he travelled to Spain & Portugal where he became interested in Antiquities and Arabic culture , geography and history. He travelled extensively throughout North Africa, Ethiopia and Egypt. As an explorer he wanted to discover the source of the Nile . He thus became the first European to trace the Blue Nile to its confluence with the White Nile. Bruce thought that the Blue Nile while smaller than the White Nile was the "Nile of the Ancients"

After a brief marriage, Bruce travelled to Spain where he studied Arabic. On his return to England he came to the notice of Lord Halifax who offered him the tricky post of the consulate at Algiers.
