MISSIONARY TRAVELS & RESEARCHES Livingstone Africa 1873 Zambesi Kalahari Boers A POPULAR ACCOUNT OF MISSIONARY TRAVELS AND RESEARCHES IN SOUTH AFRICA BY DAVID LIVINGSTONE, M.D. JOHN MURRAY: LONDON 1873 Perhaps the most famous of all African exploration books, this recounts Dr. Livingstone’s travels through South Africa, with the discovery of Lake Ngami while accompanied by his wife and William Cotton Oswell. Oswell and the author continued their journey, discovering the Zambesi River and, eventually the Victoria Falls. There are numerous sporting incidents with hunts for lions, buffalo, elephants, and a variety of plains game, even though Livingstone did not consider himself a sportsman.
