Description	H.M. Stanley's Expedition crossing the Makata Swamp, Central
Details	Sir Henry Morton Stanley's expedition crossing the Makata swamp in Central Africa, 1871. In October 1869, Stanley (1841-1904) was sent by James Gordon Bennett (owner of the New York Herald) to find Dr. David Livingstone, who had been exploring central Africa for several years without passing any communication to Europe. Two years later Stanley found Livingstone at Ujiji, Tanganika, and with it also fame and some fortune. Stanley led several further expeditions to Africa, the last of these in 1886 to find and relieve Emin Pasha. In 1892 he took British citizenship and was Unionist MP for Lambeth between 1895 and 1900.
