Mimi and Tou-tou: a Thames to Tanganyika romance
Mimi and Tou-tou: a Thames to Tanganyika romance. The overland journey made from the Cape to Central Africa, and the victorious battles fought on Lake Tanganyika by the British naval expedition with the two armed motor boats Mimi and Tou-tou, stand out as wonders of the war. Upper image shows hoisting the Union Jack at Fungurumee, the base camp for the bush trek to Lake Tanganyika. Lower image shows native women following the British commander to his camp and chanting songs of praise after the Von Wiessman flagship of the German flotilla had been sunk.
