Congo Journey
''Congo Journey'' (1996) is an autobiographical novel by British author Redmond O'Hanlon, following his trip across Congo-Brazzaville (now Republic of the Congo), taking a friend to Lake Tele in search of Mokèlé-mbèmbé, a legendary Congo dinosaur.〔(Congo Journey: Popular Penguins ). Accessed 2011-02-12〕
Travel writer Michael Shapiro considers the book as one of the "top 30 travel books of all time,"〔Michael Shapiro, (No Mercy: A Journey to the Heart of the Congo ), review. Accessed 2011-02-12〕 and declares the book, chronicling the author's search for the legendary dinosaur, to be in the literary tradition of Joseph Conrad. O’Hanlon's adventure, he says, is by turns dangerous and funny, as he "takes the long way to the lake and nearly gets killed by a village headman", trying to save a baby gorilla, while he "battles his demons and the haunting spirits of Central Africa." According to Shapiro, O’Hanlon emerges from the jungle a changed man.〔 The novel was republished in 1997 for United States readers as ''No Mercy: A Journey to the Heart of the Congo.''
