description: ""How I Found Livingstone"" is a memoir written by Sir Henry M. Stanley, an American journalist and explorer who is famous for his search for the Scottish explorer David Livingstone in Africa. The book is a detailed account of Stanley's journey through East Africa in 1871, during which he finally found Livingstone, who had been missing for several years. The book details the various challenges and obstacles that Stanley faced during his journey, including hostile tribes, dangerous animals, and harsh weather conditions. It also provides a vivid description of the landscape, people, and wildlife of East Africa in the 19th century. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the European exploration of Africa during the colonial era, and it remains a popular and influential work of travel literature.I imagine that these ant-hills were formed during a remarkably wet season, when, possibly, the forest-clad plain was inundated. I have seen the ants at work by thousands, engaged in the work of erecting their hills in other districts suffering from inundation. What a wonderful system of cells these tiny insects construct! A perfect labyrinth--cell within cell, room within room, hall within hall--an exhibition of engineering talents and high architectural capacity--a model city, cunningly contrived for safety and comfort!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
