When Stanley chose the title In Darkest Africa for the account of his marvellous travels, he was thinking of the Pygmies in the Ituri Forest and the immense herds of wild elephants and buffaloes in the limitless green savannah. Nowadays, the emphasis has been reversed and 'darkest Africa' implies the overcrowding and crime in the slums of Johannesburg's Shanty Town and the tragic plight of the Cape Coloureds, whereas Lightest Africa is concerned with the primitive unspoilt tribes in remote Karamoja, the snows of Kilimanjaro and the wonderful game reserves.".
