Invitation - David Livingstone Africa’s Greatest Explorer The Man, the Missionary and the Myth - By Colonel Paul Bayly FRGS
Join us to hear Colonel Paul Bayly FRGS talk about the life and legacy of Dr David Livingstone. The event will be followed by the launch of his book on the great explorer.
Dr Livingstone covered over 29,000 miles across Southern Africa, and opened up approximately one million square miles of uncharted territory. To this day it is considered one of the toughest series of expeditions ever undertaken. Dr Livingstone was strongly supported by Sir George Grey, Governor of both New Zealand and Cape Colony (South Africa).
