Product Description

Book Description

Henry Stanley is one of the most famous and flamboyant (and self-promoting) British explorers of the 19th century. After surviving a very difficult childhood, Stanley ran away to sea and became a soldier in the American Civil War, traveled to Greece, and finally to Africa, where he explored the continent in the name of civilization (and found Livingstone, of course). This book is the intimate and compelling self-portrait of the famous adventurer, edited by his wife.
