| 520 | _a"Proceedings of the Association for Promoting the Discovery of the Interior Parts of Africa" is a historical account written in the late 18th century. The book details the efforts of a society established to explore and document the unexplored regions of Africa, highlighting the challenges faced and the significant figures involved in these expeditions, notably Mr. Ledyard and Mr. Lucas. The beginning of the book outlines the formation of the African Association in 1788, emphasizing its goal to expand geographical knowledge of the uncharted parts of Africa. It describes the initial enthusiasm of the members to embark on explorative missions, particularly focusing on the preparations for Mr. Ledyard's journey across Africa's interior and Mr. Lucas's approach to the kingdom of Fezzan. The opening portion sets the stage for a narrative rich in historical context, illustrating the motivations and aspirations of various explorers involved in uncovering the mysteries of the continent.
