British traveler in Central Africa and the Middle East and the first European to describe Darfur, a Muslim sultanate of Billād al-Sūdān, now part of The Sudan (Sudan, The).
Browne was forcibly detained in Dārfūr (1793–96) and published his account of the event in Travels in Africa, Egypt and Syria (1799, enlarged ed. 1806).
