Sobre este artículo
London: Geoffrey Bles, 1956. 1st edition. A biography of Sir Henry Morton Stanley (1841-1904), British journalist and Africa explorer who led the expedition to find Scottish missionary David Livingstone. Stanley created an enduring catch phrase in 1871 and became the butt of constant jokes for his famous greeting, "Dr. Livingstone, I presume?" This book focuses on how the public ridicule deeply affected Stanley, even as he went on to become one of great figures of African exploration and colonization. xiii, 207 pages, notes and index. Several plates and a fold-out map of Stanley's routes. 8vo clothbound hardcover. VG in Good dust jacket. DJ is chipped at the spine ends and extremities. Protected by a clear archival cover. Some foxing to the preliminary pages, but text generally clean.
