1890 Livingstone 1ed In Darkest Africa Henry Stanley Emin Pasha Expedition MAP
“If you have men who will only come if they know there is a good road, I don't want them. I want men who will come if there is no road at all.”
? David Livingstone
A rare, first printing of Henry Stanley’s ‘In Darkest Africa.’ Known for his explorations in Africa, he found the Scottish missionary explorer David Livingstone, whom most had assumed had been lost.
