All of Candice Millard's histories feature extensive historical research, clear and engaging writing, and compelling subjects set clearly within the framework of their times. This examination of British explorers Richard Burton and John Hanning Speke's African explorations, fraught with danger and intrigue, is no exception. Excerpts from letters, diaries, and published works add a relished dimension.

I loved the book I was so cool and interesting and I love reading about the sea.

Love it

My favorite part is when the little dog was eating

They love reading these stories again and again.

Luke has even more evil plans up his sleeve but Rachel can see through the mist and can lead Percy and Annabeth through the maze.

This book was a glance into the life of an Afghanistan Muslim. The violence and harsh reality of Ali’s life were hard to read, but this was beautiful written.

My favorite part is when the boy helped the girls get the apples for the girls apple menu.

This is the best book ever. This book shows that no matter what you can do or what you look like you are still awesome.

It was funny because it has all these animal-vegetables.
