Stanley’s Explorations
Anglo-American explorer Henry Morton Stanley led two major expeditions in East and Central Africa: In 1871 he found and resupplied the famed Scottish explorer David Livingstone, returning to the Indian Ocean coast the way he had come in 1872. Then, between 1874 and 1877, Stanley successfully crossed the African continent from east to west, his party suffering great hardships along the way.
