An engrossing account of the journey that Henry Morgan Stanley undertakes to locate the missing British explorer, David Livingstone. The African landscape is vividly portrayed, along with fascinating but often gruesome details of the amazing hardships and violence encountered along the way, including tribal conflicts and the slave trade. While providing well-researched historical context, the book is essentially a suspense story and a great adventure.
