Stanley traveled to Zanzibar in search of the \"missing\" Scottish explorer and missionary David Livingstone. A year later, Stanley emerged to announce that he had \"found\" and met with Livingstone on Lake Tanganyika. His alleged utterance there, \"Dr. Livingstone, I presume,\" was one of the most famous phrases of the nineteenth century, and Stanley's book, \u003ci\u003eHow I Found Livingstone\u003c\/i\u003e, became an international bestseller. In this fascinating volume Mathilde Leduc-Grimaldi and James L. Newman transcribe and annotate the entirety of Stanley's documentation, making available for the first time in print a broader narrative of Stanley's journey that includes never-before-seen primary source documents--worker contracts, vernacular plant names, maps, ruminations on life, lines of poetry, bills of lading--all scribbled in his field notebooks. \u003ci\u003eFinding Dr. Livingstone\u003c\/i\u003e is a crucial resource for those interested in exploration and colonization in the Victorian era, the scientific knowledge of the time, and the peoples and conditions of Tanzania prior to its colonization by Germany.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mathilde Leduc-Grimaldi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0821425137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780821425138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ohio University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/20\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.92h x 6.93w x 1.34d","brand":"Mathilde Leduc-Grimaldi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075435557119,"sku":"9780821425138","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_75371d8e-e0ec-40b1-b2f9-001d983e9e46.jpg?v=1685459406","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/finding-dr-livingstone-mathilde-leduc-grimaldi-9780821425138","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
