      Description

      Stanley received an assignment from the New York Herald to locate Dr. Livingstone, who had disappeared in central Africa. He set out from Zanzibar in January 1871, traveling hundreds of miles through dangerous territory. Along the way, he confronted harsh environments, unpredictable weather, and unfamiliar illnesses. His perseverance and strategic planning led him to finally meet Livingstone, uttering the legendary greeting, “Dr. Livingstone, I presume?”

      The book vividly portrays Stanley’s interactions with African tribes, the difficulties of sustaining a long expedition, and the cultural insights he gained. Readers witness the physical and mental endurance required for such a journey, while Stanley’s detailed observations provide a window into African geography, society, and the dynamics of colonial encounters. How I Found Livingstone celebrates courage, curiosity, and the relentless pursuit of knowledge.
