Journal of the Discovery of the Source of the Nile

John Hanning Speke · William Blackwood and Sons (Edinburgh and London) · 1863

This 1863 volume recounts Speke's second expedition (1860-63, with James Augustus Grant) and should not be confused with his separate, posthumous What Led to the Discovery of the Source of the Nile (Blackwood, 1864), which reprints his earlier 'Journal of Adventures in Somali Land' and 'Journal of a Cruise on the Tanganyika Lake,' originally serialized in Blackwood's Magazine and recounting his first expedition with Richard Burton.
