David Livingstone’s search for the source of the Nile and Henry Morton Stanley’s assignment to find him brought together two men with sharply different ambitions. Martin Dugard follows their separate journeys toward the 1871 meeting that became one of the most famous episodes in exploration history.

The story reaches beyond that encounter to the newspaper rivalry, imperial interests, illness, and difficult journeys surrounding it. Alternating between Livingstone and Stanley, Dugard turns a familiar historical moment into a sustained account of uncertainty, endurance, and ambition.

This first edition, first printing retains its original illustrated dust jacket and comes from the estate of Doane Perry.
