Excerpt from Travels in Africa During the Years 1882-1886 Dr. Junker will alway.e be regarded as a typical scientific explorer worthy to rank with such men as Barth, Wallace, Schweinfurth or Bates. Although untrained to astronomic observations, he prepared his intricate route surveys so carefully and with so many compass bearings, as illustrated in Chapter VII. Of the present volume, that these data, with some latitudes supplied from other sources, have sufficed for the construction of accurate maps of the regions traversed by him. It is also noteworthy that during all his ramblings in the welle-congo and Upper Nile lands he appears to have never directly or indirectly occasioned the loss of a single life. Like Livingstone, he moved about alone amongst the natives without armed escorts and accompanied only by his attendants and carriers. His ethnological studies of the populations about the Congo Nile water-parting are of the first importance. Although most of his ethnological and natural history collections appear to have fallen into the hands of the Mahdists, enough was rescued to form a prominent feature in the St. Petersburg and Berlin Museums. Amongst the many tokens of public recognition for his great services to the cause of geographical research, none were more highly prized by the illustrious traveller than his election as Honorary Corresponding Member of the Royal Geographical Society.
