Omschrijving

Slightly Abridged Edition. Sir Henry Morton Stanley, GCB, born John Rowlands (1841-1904), was a Welsh journalist and explorer famous for his exploration of Africa and his search for David Livingstone. Stanley found Livingstone in 1871, in Ujiji near Lake Tanganyika in present-day Tanzania, and may have greeted him with the now famous, "Dr. Livingstone, I presume? " This famous phrase may be a fabrication, as Stanley tore out of his diary the pages relating to the encounter. Stanley joined Livingstone in exploring the region, establishing for certain that there was no connection between Lake Tanganyika and the River Nile. On his return, he wrote a book about his experiences: How I Found Livingstone. In 1874, the New York Herald, in partnership with Britain's Daily Telegraph, financed Stanley on an expedition to the African continent. One of his missions was to solve a last great mystery of African exploration by tracing the course of the River Congo to the sea. He wrote about his trials in his book Through the Dark Continent, describing his expedition as if it were a conquest.
