Arthur J. M. Jephson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arthur Jeremy Mounteney Jephson (1859-1908) was a young adventurer and African explorer, who accompanied H.M.Stanley on the Emin Pasha Relief Expedition, 1887-1889. Jephson's frank, sensitive and open-hearted diary from the expedition was published half a century after his death, and provides a valuable and disturbing record of the late Victorian African expeditions, of which this expedition was to be the last.
