Excerpt from The Life, Labours, Perilous Adventures, and Discoveries of Dr. Livingstone: Nearly Thirty Years a Missionary Explorer in the Wilds of Africa, With a Thrilling Account of His Resurrection The extraordinary interest which is felt by the reading public of this country, as well as of the whole civilized world, in the adventures and discoveries of Dr. Livingstone, renders any apology for the appearance of the present vol ume altogether unnecessary. If needful to apologize at all, it is for the appearance of anything like a full and satisfac tory account of his explorations in that part of Central South Africa, which has hitherto been a term izzmgi/z'ta in geographical science, -a region about which the most strange and contradictory reports have been published and believed, and whose fertility and capabilities of improve ment, whether as regards climate, soil, or the people who inhabit it, were altogether undreamt-of.
