Sir Henry Morton Stanley is renowned for his famous words, Dr. Livingstone, I presume? Born in Wales and relocating to the United States at 18, Stanley became a prominent overseas correspondent for the New York Herald. In 1869, he received a daring assignment from James Gordon Bennett Jr. to find the elusive Scottish missionary and explorer, Dr. David Livingstone. When Stanley expressed concerns over the costs, Bennetts response was emphatic Draw a thousand pounds now; and when you have gone through that, draw another thousand, and so on; but, FIND LIVINGSTONE. In How I Found Livingstone, Stanley chronicles his adventurous journey from Zanzibar to Lake Tanganyika, sharing captivating tales of his time spent exploring the region alongside Livingstone. This personal account offers a thrilling insight into exploration, determination, and the spirit of discovery. - Written by Lizzie Driver (Modified from Wikipedia)Copyright Early Modern アート 世界 文学史・文学批評 社会科学 科学
