""Benin: The City of Blood"" is a historical account written by Reginald Bacon in 1897, detailing the British Punitive Expedition to Benin City in what is now Nigeria. The book provides a vivid and detailed description of the expedition, which was launched in response to the killing of a British delegation by the Benin Empire. Bacon recounts the events leading up to the expedition, including the British government's decision to send a military force to the region, the planning and execution of the expedition, and the subsequent capture and looting of the city. The book also provides insight into the culture and customs of the Benin Empire, as well as the political and economic factors that led to the conflict. Overall, ""Benin: The City of Blood"" is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of colonialism and the African continent.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
