Letter from Samuel A. Thompson to Theodore Roosevelt

Samuel A. Thompson writes to President Roosevelt with a number of suggestions and pieces of information for Roosevelt to consider when preparing for his African safari. While Thompson has not been to Africa, he has traveled in the tropics in Venezuela, and advises Roosevelt about the sorts of dangers he may face from insects and other things that, in the northern hemisphere, may be of little consequence.
