Over dit audioboek
In 1815, Captain James Riley and his crew were shipwrecked off the coast of Africa, captured by nomads, sold into slavery, and subjected to the harsh conditions of the Sahara Desert. Sufferings in Africa is Riley's harrowing account of his experiences, detailing the cruelty of his captors, the extreme hardships he endured, and his eventual rescue and return to civilization. This compelling narrative offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of both the nomadic tribes and the European slaves, while also serving as a testament to the strength of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity.
