Deep red cloth-covered boards, gilt-stamped lettering on the spine. `12mo. Cloth us rubbed on corners and the ends and joints of a slightly sunned spine, with small scar on rear joint; a little marked. Text block edges dull and darkened. Prize presentation plate, dated 1902-3 on the front paste down; endpapers toned and spotted; some spotting on first and last few leaves; tissue guard browned and spotted, affecting title page else internally neat and clean. Very slightly shaken.

A lovely vintage copy of this important account of Henry Stanley’s 1871-72 journey across Eastern Central Africa in search of the missionary and explorer David Livingstone which was said to end with Stanley voicing the pithy line, ‘Dr Livingstone, I presume?’
