Stanley and Emin entered Bagamoyo on their donkeys, some way ahead of their caravan, on 4 December, 1889. It was sensational news. Emin was safe, although the expedition to relieve him had cost the lives of at least seven hundred people. Stanley began his account of the rescue at the Hotel Victoria, Cairo, on the 25 January 1890, working on it continuously for 50 days at the rate of 20 printed pages per day. The first portion of the manuscript was delivered to the printer's on 12 March and the last proof sheet returned for printing by Clowes on 3 June. 'It may be safely asserted... that no work of travel of this magnitude was ever before produced in so short a space of time' (Author's and Publisher's Note, p. iv). Hosken p. 189. (2).
