Key to routes; reference note on geographical positions. [Printed by] G Philip and Son, London and Liverpool; published in The Geographical Journal, 1901. MS additions, coloured, showing the approximate division between the rising ground and the plain, and the [Barotse] boundary added from the 'rough temporary map' mentioned in Gibbons's report on the western and northern boundary of Barotseland.
