However, it turned out to be completely impossible to boats past the Cahora Bassa rapids, a series of cataracts and rapids that Livingstone had failed to explore on his earlier travels. He eventually returned home in 1864 after the government ordered the recall of the expedition because of its increasing costs and failure to find a navigable route to the interior. The Zambezi Expedition, a farcical and costly six-year-long venture that sought to create a missionary arcadia in what is now Malawi, collapsed in 1864 with no coverts or new discoveries, only disarry and death, including that of Livingstone's long-suffering wife Mary (Howgego, The book of exploration, p.246).

John Newton (1725-1807) is probably the best known of the captains, not only because his published journals contain one of the most detailed descriptions of everyday life in the trade, but also because he later fought vigorously for abolition. His hymn 'Amazing Grace' has been a particular favorite of black congregations for generations (Rodriguez, Historical encyclopedia of world slavery, I, p.128).
