David Livingstone's travelogue of his expedition to the source of the Zambezi river in what is Zimbabwe today.
Officially commissioned to explore the Zambezi river for mineral deposits and opportunities for trade, David Livingstone left England in 1858 and discovered an area whose sharp contrast between misery and natural beauty left him bewitched. Outraged by the racial injustice he found during the eight year expedition, Livingstone wrote this account.

David Livingstone (1813-73) was a Scottish missionary and traveller who became world famous for his search for the origins of the Nile, a search which tragically ended in his death. The Zambezi expedition preceded the troubled Nile expedition.
