Kroz pustinju i prašume

Mirko Seljan, Stevo Seljan

A work in which Mirko and Stevo Seljan, famous Croatian explorers, record their travels and explorations through Africa. This adventurous narrative brings to life the real experiences of the Seljan brothers during their expeditions in the late 19th and ea

The book brings exciting descriptions of vast deserts, dense rainforests, unknown rivers and mountains, and encounters with various tribes and peoples. The authors describe with great interest the natural beauty, flora and fauna, as well as the cultural customs and way of life of African natives. At the same time, the spirit of scientific research, curiosity and respect for diversity runs through their writings.

The Seljan brothers show all the challenges that a journey through unexplored regions brings: fighting natural disasters, diseases, wild animals, but also moments of danger from hostile tribes. However, their journey is not only a physical conquest of space, but also a spiritual adventure of encountering an unknown world and expanding the boundaries of human knowledge.

"Through the Desert and the Rainforest" exudes an adventurous spirit, a passion for research and patriotism, because the Seljan brothers proudly presented their research as the work of Croatian researchers on a world scale. The book inspires the reader with courage, scientific curiosity, and a willingness to make sacrifices to discover new knowledge about the world.
