Note. The spelling of African names adopted throughout this book is the system sanctioned by the Royal Geographical Society, by which all consonants are pronounced as in English and all vowels as in Italian. Ñ, ñ represents the nasal sound of ‘ng’ in ‘ringing,’ ‘song,’ as distinguished from the ‘ng’ in ‘anger.’ No consonants are doubled unless pronounced twice in succession: thus ‘Massowah’ is properly written Masawa. But where old established custom has sanctioned a spelling diverging from these rules the official spelling of the name is adopted. Thus: Moçambique instead of Msambiki; Quelimane instead of Kelimān; Uganda as well as the more correct Buganda; Bonny instead of Obani.
