Review:
Couldn’t put this down.
Superb history, well researched and backed by primary sources, yet reads like a novel.
An impossibly difficult journey, for a grail quest.
Reminded me a lot of the Franklin fiasco and the tremendous waste of lives and resources spent to recover one foolish old adventurer.
Learned a lot about 19th century Africa, and that a lot has not changed.
This book made me want to: never set foot in Africa
