In 1874 the onetime journalist, whose "discovery" of the supposedly lost Livingstone had made him an international celebrity, set out from England on a journey to resolve the riddle of the Nile's origin and to determine if the Lualaba, which Livingstone had believed to be a branch of the Nile, was really the upper Congo...
