		Stanley was officially still in the employment of Leopold II, but in a visit to Brussels, persuaded the king to not only let Stanley go, but to take a route up the Congo River, and by 1 January 1887 Stanley was in London preparing the expedition, to the accompaniment of public acclaim.

		Livingstone was to become for Stanley something of an ideal father-figure – a replacement for the father he never had – and he would in later life refer to back to what Livingstone might have said or done.
		News of Stanley’s meeting with Livingstone was telegraphed around the world as soon as he regained the African coast in 1872 and Stanley’s almost immediate publication of his sensationalising journalistic account, How I Found Livingstone: Travels, Adventures and Discoveries in Central Africa (1872), confirmed his reputation as an intrepid explorer and soaring self-promoter.
		Stanley’s organisation and leadership of the expedition were catastrophic; the leader of his rear column, Major Edmund Bartellot went mad; a good half of the expedition died, and it arrived long after the threat had evaporated.
