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. Volume 2 begins in 1869, when Stanley was sent to report
on the inauguration of the Suez Canal, to write a guide to the Nile
and to give an account of Sir Charles Warren's explorations
underneath Jerusalem, before proceeding through Persia to India.
Displaying his characteristic energy, versatility and direct
writing style throughout, Stanley portrays, in the words of his
publisher, 'life-like pictures of times gone by'.
