Does anyone on maps-l know of a tourist guide to the Congo river? Not to
mention the Mississippi and the Yangtse?

A reader of ours is totally convinced there is something out there for the
Congo, and I can find zip.

Atlantic Monthly press published something a few years back for the Congo,
but I haven't examined it.

I am looking for something naming the important mileages/kms and
interesting/important sites along the shore, or in the vicinity of the
river.
