Written with the family’s papers in hand, this life follows Livingstone from his Scottish boyhood through missionary training, the stations at Mabotsa, Chonuane and Kolobeng, the journey to Lake Ngami, the crossing from Linyanti to Loanda and Quilimane, and the Zambezi expedition. Blaikie sets out to show the man his own travel books kept hidden: his affections, his faith and his doubts.
