5.0 out of 5 stars A compelling and absorbing true adventure, February 11, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: How I Found Livingstone: Travels, Adventures, and Discoveries in Central Africa, Including an Account of Four Months' Residence with Dr. Livingstone (Hardcover)

Written with virtually no emotionalism in the traditional style of a journalist, this biographical account taken from Stanley's diary takes one on an unforgettable adventure of trial and suffering, and eventually utter joy in the success of his goal. This book is an epic adventure of truly brave men. Stanley presents his story with stoicism and a circumspection that seem to understate the raw excitement of this story.
