1875 Last Journals of David Livingstone Scottish Africa
1875 Last Journals of David Livingstone Scottish African MAP Exploration Waller
“I will go anywhere, provided it be forward.”
― David Livingstone
David Livingstone was a Scottish medical missionary with the London Missionary Society and explorer in Africa. In this book Livingstone describes his travel and work as a missionary to the indigenous people in Central and South Africa. Through the mid-19th-century, South Africa was completely unknown to Europeans, so Livingstone’s mission brought light to more than just spreading the gospel. The work deals with customs, languages, animal and plant biology, geology, topography, and mineralogy which he kept until his death.
This American edition of ‘Last Journals’ is illustrated with 21 full-page engravings and 25 in-text illustrations. It is an abridged version of the original London edition.
