""An Account of the Congo Independent State"" is a historical book written by Henry Phillips Jr. in 1889. The book provides a detailed overview of the Congo Independent State, which was established by King Leopold II of Belgium in 1885. Phillips Jr. was an American lawyer and diplomat who was sent to the Congo by the United States government to investigate the conditions of the region.The book covers a wide range of topics related to the Congo Independent State, including its history, geography, people, culture, and economy. Phillips Jr. also provides a critical analysis of the policies and practices of the Belgian government in the Congo, particularly in relation to the exploitation of natural resources and the treatment of the Congolese people.The book is considered an important historical document that sheds light on the early years of colonialism in Africa and the impact it had on the local population. It is also a valuable resource for scholars and researchers interested in the history of the Congo and the broader history of European imperialism in Africa.Overall, ""An Account of the Congo Independent State"" is a well-researched and insightful book that provides a comprehensive overview of the Congo under Belgian rule in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
