		After some time spent in the exploration of the neighborhood, during which Baker demonstrated that the Nile flowed through the Albert Nyanza -- of whose size he formed an exaggerated idea -- he started upon his return journey, and reached Khartoum after many checks in May 1865.
		The khedive appointed him governor-general of the new territory for four years at a salary of £10,000 a year; and it was not until the expiration of that time that Baker returned to Cairo, leaving his work to be carried on by the new governor, Colonel Charles George Gordon.
		He had to contend with innumerable difficulties -- the blocking of the river by sudd, the bitter hostility of officials interested in the slave trade, the armed opposition of the natives -- but he succeeded in planting in the new territory the foundations upon which others could build up an administration.

	Samuel Baker - Wikipedia
		Samuel White Baker (Londra, 8 giugno 1821 - Sandford Orleigh, 30 dicembre 1893) fu un esploratore britannico.
		Il successo della loro spedizione fece pensare a Baker che nulla era rimasto da fare per la sua spedizione, ma i due esploratori gli diedero sufficienti informazioni per permettergli, dopo essersi diviso da loro, di scoprire quello che egli stesso chiamò poi il Lago Alberto.
		Baker vide per la prima volta il lago il 14 marzo 1864 e esplorando le sue vicinanze, dimostrò che esso veniva attraversato dal Nilo; tuttavia si fece una idea sbagliata delle dimensioni del lago, che riteneva essere molto più grande di quanto in realtà non fosse.
