| Summary |
"The Day of Resis" by Lillian Frances Mentor is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows Enola Cameron, an adventurous young woman with a passionate interest in Africa and its mysteries, as she embarks on a perilous journey into the heart of the continent. Along with her guardian and friends, Enola pursues the truth behind a strange document revealing the existence of a hidden civilization, leading them on an exploration rife with danger and discovery. At the start of the narrative, readers are introduced to Enola through a letter detailing her commitment to find a mysterious place referenced in an ancient manuscript discovered by a hunting party in Africa. She enlists the help of her guardian, Mr. Graham, and his son, Harry, who are both intrigued by her ambition. They prepare for their expedition, setting their sights on Zanzibar as they gather supplies and hire local carriers for the journey ahead. As the caravan moves through diverse landscapes, they encounter various challenges, from fierce wildlife to treacherous terrain, foreshadowing their deeper plunge into an unknown and potentially dangerous land that promises both wonder and peril.
