Note 148 — V
Philip Askell Benton translation
Rohlfs asserts that there is a great ‘mimosa-forest’, i.e. a forest of trees of the acacia species, which passes north of Kukawa and appears to ‘extend like a ribbon, in many places four or five days’ journey broad, right across the African continent from the West Coast to the Red Sea’. Rohlfs, ii. 285.
