EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image, Edward J. Young, a renowned British explorer of Africa, stands before an attentive audience at the prestigious Royal Geographical Society's meeting held at Burlington House on October 17, 1868. Young's expressive demeanor and animated gestures convey the intensity and urgency of his search for the elusive Dr. David Livingstone, the famed Scottish missionary and explorer who had gone missing in Africa several years prior. Young's lecture, filled with captivating tales of adventure and discovery, was met with great anticipation and excitement. The audience, consisting of esteemed members of the Society and the public, leaned forward in rapt attention as Young described his arduous journey through the heart of the African continent. With a large, detailed map of Africa spread out before him, Young traced the path he had taken, recounting the challenges he had faced and the discoveries he had made along the way. The search for Livingstone had consumed Young for years, driving him to explore the uncharted territories of Africa in pursuit of the missing explorer. His determination and unwavering resolve had finally paid off, as he had recently made contact with Livingstone in the heart of the African wilderness. The news of their reunion had spread like wildfire, and Young's lecture was a testament to the enduring spirit of exploration and the indomitable human will to discover the unknown. As the meeting came to a close, the audience applauded Young's courage and tenacity, inspired by his tales of adventure and the knowledge that they were living in an age of great discovery and exploration. The image of Young, standing before the map, serves as a powerful reminder of the human spirit's insatiable curiosity and the lengths to which we will go to explore the unknown.
