(Rhodesiana Reprint Library, Vol. 28) Eduard Mohr (February 19, 1828 in Bremen - December 26, 1876 in Malange) was a German African explorer. In December 1868 he set out on a major journey to the Mosi-oa-Tunya or Victoria Falls of the Zambezi. The results of this journey, on which Mohr was accompanied by the metallurgical engineer Adolf Hübner, were very valuable for science because of the astronomical determinations.
