Excerpt from David Livingstone: His Labours and His Legacy

Gospel Of brotherly love. From what these pioneers tell us, we are forced to conclude that ignorance and cruelty, cannibalism and slavery, will only be swept away from the long-suffering African by the slow but sure methods Of powerful and responsible commerce such as the further establishment and development Of those commercial kingdoms which have already arisen in Africa - and by the prevalence of what must be an ideal unguessed at by the savage: the well-clad, cleanly, decent, active, prosperous, unselfish, and Christian missionary. None has told us this more plainly, and none stands out more clearly from this group of pioneers, than David Livingstone, the subject Of this memoir.
