This eyeopening perspective on Stanleys expedition reveals new details about the Victorian explorer and his African crew on the brink of the colonial Scramble for Africa.In 1871, Welsh American journalist Henry M. Stanley traveled to Zanzibar in search of the missing Scottish explorer and missionary David Livingstone. A year later, Stanley emerged to announce that he had found and met with Livingstone on Lake Tanganyika. His alleged utterance there, Dr. Livingstone, I presume, was one of the most famous phrases of the nineteenth century, and Stanleys book, How I Found Livingstone, became an international bestseller.In this fascinating volume Mathilde LeducGrimaldi and James L. Newman transcribe and annotate the entirety of Stanleys documentation, making available for the first time in print a broader narrative of Stanleys journey that includes neverbeforeseen primary source documentsworker contracts, vernacular plant names, maps, ruminations on life, lines of poetry, bills of ladingall scribbled in his field notebooks.Finding Dr. Livingstone is a crucial resource for those interested in exploration and colonization in the Victorian era, the scientific knowledge of the time, and the peoples and conditions of Tanzania prior to its colonization by Germany.
