With double-page frontispiece of the great cataracts of the Zambesi 12 full-page plates 1 large folding map and text illustrations throughout. Brown textured cloth exterior slightly faded and rubbed spine nicked; text is slightly toned but clean. First American edition of Livingstone’s account of his Zambezi expedition to examine the natural resources of southeastern Africa and to determine the navigability of the Zambezi River. He explored the Shire River a stream leading to Zambezi and discovered Lake Nyasa along with the Rovuma River and Lake Chilwa. The expedition met with many difficulties. The Zambezi turned out unnavigable past the Cabora Bassa rapids and in addition he lost his wife Mary to malaria. Livingstone became greatly concerned with the slave trade while exploring Lake Nyasa He encountered marches of manacled slaves and with the entire countryside devasted by warring and slave raiding made a great impact on him. Nevertheless some of the scientists on the expedition contributed collections of botanic ecological geological and ethnographic materials on their return home.<br /> <br /> David Livingstone 1813-1873 was one of the greatest of all African missionaries explorers and antislavery advocate. He made geographical discoveries for European knowledge inspired abolitionists of the slave trade revealed that the interior of the African continent was not an arid wasteland and provided new incentives for European colonization of Africa.

elala3363<p>New York: Harper & Brothers Publishers 1858. First American Edition of one of the most important nineteenth century accounts of African exploration. Livingstone describes his missionary activities and travels in South Africa from 1841 to 1853 and his first major expedition the Trans-Africa journey of 1853-56. On this expedition he travelled from Linyanti to Loanda and from Linyanti to Quilimane. While exploring the Zambesi River he discovered the famous Victoria Falls in November 1855. “The results in geography and in natural science in all its departments were abundant and accurate; his observations necessitated a reconstruction of the map of Central Africa. When Livingstone began his work in Africa the map was virtually blank from Kuruman to Timbuktu and nothing but envy or ignorance can throw any doubt on the originality of his discoveries.†Encyc. Britan. 11th Edn. Livingstone also here gives an accurate account of the tsetse fly and of the disease produced in cattle following its bite. “Delightful reading.†DNB Mendelssohn III 136. cfGarrison & Morton 5269. cfGay 3034. cfPrinting and the Mind of Man 341. cfAbbey Travel 347. cfHosken p. 126 1st Issue. 8vo. pp. xxiv 732 4ads. 1 steel-engraved portrait of Livingstone 2 folding maps by Arrowsmith 1 double-page wood engraving 1 folding diagram & numerous wood-engraved text illus. 22 full-page. title vignette. original blind-stamped cloth recased slight fraying to spine endspiece clipped from front flyleaf</p> New York: Harper & Brothers, Publishers, 1858 hardcover
