The Livingstone Expedition in Africa - Dr. Livingstone's station [on] the Kongone River... 1860. Creator: Unknown

The Livingstone Expedition in Africa - Dr. Livingstone's station at the mouth of the Kongone River, on the Zambezi Delta, 1860. Engraving from a sketch by...T. Baines, Esq. artist to the Livingstone expedition...The Zambesi, or Secheke, a river of Central Africa, rising in the marshes of the interior, is the main stream of a vast system explored by Livingstone in 1856, and has a winding course from the west. In latitude 17 deg. 57 min. south, long. 26 deg. 6 min. east, it bends to the south, and forms a magnificent cascade. On the north it is joined by the Kafue, its chief affluent; it then turns east, and flows to the Mozambique Channel, forming a delta 300 miles in length. It is on this delta, at the mouth of the River Kongone, that Dr. Livingstone's station...is situated. Her Majesty's sloop of war Lynx, Lieut.-Commandant H. Berkeley, which had been sent from the Cape by Admiral Sir Frederick Grey for the relief of Dr. Livingstone's expedition, is in the offing, and her boats are pulling in over the bar'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860
