Why we identify with Dr LivingstoneDr Livingstone had mythic status, being a revolutionary in Africa and one of the most popular international heroes of the Late 19th Century. He was a martyr, scientific investigator, explorer and anti slavery crusader. He was idolised by those that he met. Doctor Livingstone's meeting with H.M. Stanley gave rise to the popular quotation, "Dr Livingstone, I presume?" You'll recognise that quotation from around our site. We feel his identity is worthy of associating our working philosophy with and it's what makes us a company you want to engage with.
