Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Livingstone (1813-73) was a Scottish missionary and medical doctor who explored much of the interior of Africa. Livingstone's most famous expedition was in 1866-73, when he traversed much of central Africa in an attempt to find the source of the Nile. This book contains the daily journals that Livingstone kept on this expedition, from his first entry on January 28, 1866, when he arrived at Zanzibar (in present-day Tanzania), to his last on April 27, 1873, four days before he died from malaria and dysentery in a village near Lake Bangweulu in present-day Zambia. In his more than seven-year journey, Livingstone was assisted by friendly African chiefs and at times by Arab slave traders, whose activities he abhorred. His journals contain detailed observations on the people, plants, animals, topography, and climate of central Africa, as well as on the slave trade. The journals also provide Livingstone's account of his meeting with Henry Morton Stanley in the fall of 1871. Stanley had been sent by the New York Herald to find the explorer, but was unable to convince him to return to England. Livingstone's last entry reads: "Knocked up quite, and remain--recover--sent to buy milch-goats. We are on the banks of the Molilamo." After Livingstone's death, his African servants Susi and Chuma saved the journals for transport to England, where they were edited and published by Livingstone's friend Horace Waller.

Book excerpt: Dr. David Livingstone's final years are told in his own words, as he traverses the deepest wildernesses of Africa to make several valuable discoveries with the help of his assistants. A medical missionary, scientist and explorer, David Livingstone's multi-faceted personality appealed to a wide strata of England's 19th century society. Although he came from a poor background, his talents and distinctions were clear by the time he came of age, and his name was synonymous with exploration and adventure. Livingstone felt the appeal of Africa at a young age whilst still a medical student. He was inspired by ambitious plans to end the slave trade between Africans, which his contemporaries considered possible through expedient missionary work and the introduction of conventional trades as an alternative to the immorality of dealing in human beings. By the mid-1860s Dr. Livingstone had over two decades experience of Africa, and commanded much respect among the peoples for his education and compassion. He was a personable man, noted for his diplomatic abilities which served to calm tensions and suspicions among local chieftains and warlords. His mission was fourfold: to end slavery, to introduce Christianity, to encourage commerce, and to study the geography and layout of inland Africa. These preoccupations are evident in his diaries, which evidence a man who had engendered good relations with the local peoples. Living among Africans for years, his traveling companions respected him for courage; many of his explorations were in dangerous swamps. When he contracted malaria and later dysentery, the atmosphere became sombre as the great explorer expired. Livingstone's remains were carried over 1,000 miles to the coast, where they were taken to England for burial.
