Decorative Cloth. Zustand: Very Good (Minus). No Jacket. First American Edition. Joel T. Headley (1813-1897), clergyman and newspaperman (he edited Horace Greeley's New York "Tribune"), wrote several popular histories, including works on the American Civil War and another, later volume on Stanley. This is a Very Good copy of the First Edition. The Title Page gives a bit of a summary of English imperial exploration: "Comprising all the late and really great achievements won in the exploration of the vast unknown region of equatorial Africa; chief among which are the finding of the lost Livingstone by Stanley, the explorations of the great lakes, the wonderful experiences of Sir Samuel W. Baker, in his remarkable expediation, with a small army, under royal authority, to the Central Lake Region by way of the Nile; the discoveries of Lieut. Cameron in his memorable overland journey across the entire continent from east to west; and the crowning triumph of all, won by the daring and intrepid Stanley, in facing a thousand perils by savages, cataracts, disease, wild beasts and starvation, but by an almost superhuman heroism, forcing his way down the dark river 2500 miles, and solving the great mystery by proving Livingstone's Lualaba verily the headwaters of the mighty CONGO. And thus opening a grand highway from the west coast to the heart and treasures of one of the most populous and productive continents of the globe." This is a Very Good copy of the First American Edition. Large octavo in green cloth decorative binding. Ruled on the front cover with a reproduction of Stanley's signature; bright gilt lettering on the spine, with a figure carrying a canoe into water. Clean text; 605 pages, with a fold-out map. The corners are rubbed in a typical fashion for a large Victorian book; rear gutter cracked, but holding; with a loose feel (shaken). Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
