Description: David Livingstone Narrative of an Expedition to the Zambesi 1st American Edition published in New York in 1866. 638 pages. Harper & Bros. were the publishers of many 19th century books describing the adventures of explorers, missionaries and hunters in Africa. In twenty-nine chapters Livingstone describes the flora, fauna and people of the region and focuses on the horrors of the slave trade. In a post script to the preface he wrote: The great fact that the Americans have rid themselves of the incubus of slavery, and will probably not tolerate the continuance of the murderous sale-trade by the Portuguese nation, has done more to elicit their king's recent speech than th opinions of the ministry. An extremely good writer, Livingstone's account is a vivid portrayal of the conditions he encountered in the middle of the 19th century.
