1875 1ed David
Livingstone Life & Labors AFRICA Missionary Illustrated Chambliss
“If you have men who
will only come if they know there is a good road, I don't want them. I want men
who will come if there is no road at all.”
– David Livingstone
David Livingstone was a Scottish medical
missionary with the London Missionary Society, an explorer in Africa, and one
of the most popular British heroes of the late-19th-century in the
Victorian era. Henry Stanley was a Welsh-American journalist and explorer who
was famous for his exploration of central Africa and his search for Dr.
Livingstone. Upon finding Livingstone, Stanley reportedly asked, "Dr.
Livingstone, I presume?"
This 1875 first Chambliss edition of ‘Life and Labors of David Livingstone’ is a fine work on the
missionary’s career with views of native African people, animals, landscapes,
and events during his ministry.
