Summary
| Description |
Henry M. Stanley and party standing on back of train at Monterey, California, March 19th, 1891, porters standing at side of car. From his autobiography ([1]) "We now travelled over the States and Canada, in a special Pullman-car, which had been named 'Henry M. Stanley'. It was palatial as we had our own kitchen and cook, a dining car, which, at night was converted into a dormitory, a drawing room with piano, three state-bedrooms and a bathroom". Regarding other people in the image: from "Stanley: Africa's Greatest Explorer" By Tim Jeal ([2]): "A large party came on Stanley's American tour, with Jephson and Sali included, as well as Major Pond, Henry's lecture agent, and Pond's wife and her sister." <snip> "A special Pullman car, named "Henry M. Stanley" was obtained by Pond for the party." |
