Emin Pasha, German Naturalist and Explorer

The Emin Pasha Relief Expedition was led by Henry Morton Stanley and came to be both celebrated for its ambition in crossing darkest Africa, and notorious for the deaths of so many of its members. Stanley met Emin in April 1888, and after a year spent in argument and indecision, Emin was convinced to leave for the coast. They arrived in Bagamoyo in 1890. During celebrations, Emin was injured and spent two months in a hospital recovering, while Stanley left without being able to bring him back in triumph. Emin entered the service of the German East Africa Company and accompanied Dr. Stuhlmann on an expedition to the lakes in the interior, but was killed by Arab slave traders. In Darkest Africa by Henry Morton Stanley, 1890.
