Publisher Summary
 

Dr. Livingstone, I presume? So goes the signature introduction of New York Herald star journalist Henry Morton Stanley to renowned explorer Dr. David Livingstone, who had been missing for six years in the wilds of Africa. Into Africa ushers us into the meeting of these remarkable men. In 1866, when Livingstone journeyed into the heart of the African continent in search of the Nile's source, the land was rough, unknown to Europeans, and inhabited by man-eating tribes. The man sent to find him was an orphan and a drifter who had great ambition but little success to show for it. The book shows how, over the course of their nine-year relationship, Stanley ironically rose in power and prominence while Livingstone was relegated to isolation and danger in Africa.

Review by Roger from Manhattan, KS | 5/3/2011

This was a great adventure read. It really opened my eyes to the dangers and hardships faced by these early explorers. It also provides a fascinating glimpse into the motivations behind the explorations.

By the end of this book I was on the edge of my seat, biting my nails, and holding my breath. Skillfully crafted and smooth as silk to read, this got my heart rate up.
