| Summary | "Le Tour du Monde; Côte d'Ivoire" by Various is a travel narrative published in the early 20th century. It forms part of a series originally founded by Édouard Charton, focusing on voyages and explorers. This work specifically recounts the experiences of the doctor Lamy, a major in the colonial troops, as he embarks on an expedition through Ivory Coast, exploring the local customs, geography, and people. The opening portion describes the beginning of Lamy's journey, including his departure from Marseille and arrival in Grand-Bassam. He details the preparations for the expedition, including the organization of the team and equipment, as well as the initial interactions with local communities. Lamy provides rich descriptions of the landscape, local customs, and challenges they encounter such as navigating through the bush, including difficulties with the terrain and the reactions of indigenous people to their presence. The narrative sets a tone of discovery and adventure, aimed at capturing both the beauty and the perils of exploring the uncharted environments of the Ivory Coast.
