Reviews
This new, well written book reveals much about the man. It the man far more human than perhaps anyone else realised. It has taught me much about a man of whom I realise now I knew little. It makes me want to learn more. -- Christopher Wardale * The lance *

Tomkins re-humanises Livingstone and sees in him a far more interesting person than the figure of old Sunday School teaching ever appeared. -- Christopher Wardale * The Lance *
`It is not simply a collection of joined up diary recollections, but a cogent, coherent and topical analysis of his life' -- Lynne McNeil * Life and Work *
