Sir Henry Morton Stanley (1841-1904) was a journalist and explorer
renowned for his adventures in Africa. After emigrating to America
in 1859, Stanley worked as a journalist for the New York Herald. In
1869 he was instructed to undertake an expedition to find the
missionary David Livingstone, and the success of this mission
brought him public recognition and financial success. Published in
1895, these two volumes contain Stanley's early journalistic
writing as special correspondent for the Herald and the Missouri
Democrat. Stanley's reports in Volume 1 cover General Hancock's
military expedition against the Cheyenne and the Sioux peoples in
Kansas and Nebraska, and the subsequent peace conferences between
General Sherman and the Plains Indians. He paints a vivid picture
of life in 1867 in this area of the United States through in-depth
descriptions of the customs and living conditions of the native
Indians, geographical features and military confrontations.
