"David Livingstone". These are the final writings of David Livingstone shortly before his death in 1873. He was seeking the source of the Lualaba which he thought was the source of the Nile. Livingstone succumbed to his injuries and illnesses he suffered from his travels around equatorial Africa. While Livingstone was an advocate for native sovereignty and a firm abolitionist historians argue that he renewed the justification for British imperialism on African lands. While Livingstone genuinely believed in spreading the Christian gospel economic imperialists used this pretense to invade and control many parts of Africa. These journals are a record of Livingstone's final days a first-hand account of travel around nineteenth-century central Africa and one of the high spots of nineteenth-century African exploration. The leather mellowed in places a very small dampspot on each rear board. An occasional faint dampsot to the margins of some of the plates and leaves not affecting the visibility or sharpness of any of them. John Murray hardcover

First Edition. The journals contain a detailed description of Livingstones last expedition which began in Zanzibar in 1866 and ended with his death on the south shore of Lake Tanganyika in 1873. "The two main objects of the expedition were the suppression of slavery by means of civilizing influences and the ascertainment of the watershed in the region between Nyasa and Tanganyika. At first Livingstone thought the Nile problem had been solved by Speke Baker and Burton but the idea grew on upon him that the Nile sources must be sought farther south and his last journey became in the end a forlorn hope in search of the fountains of Herodotus."
