| Description: | Text based on the following document : "Two years ago, an infamous libel against the Congo State was published in America under the title of "King Leopold's Soliloquy". It was [...] bearing Mark Twain's signature [...]. As the pamphlet met with no success in America, the issue of a second edition, with several additions by the Secretary of the Congo Reform Association (E. D. Morel) was undertaken. This edition, apparently better prepared, was to serve for the English public." The document under the cote 294865B is bound with 14 other booklets. Avertissement aux lecteurs : cet ouvrage est mis en ligne pour sa valeur historique, mais il peut contenir des propos racistes et/ou en faveur du colonialisme tel que pratiqué dans la première moitié du 20e siècle. |
