Good introduction to Zambia

While written for a school-age reader, ZAMBIA provides an excellent introduction to this struggling nation. Instead of glossing over the huge problems in Zambia, the book explains the issues in a balanced manner, particularily the post-colonial problems. The kindness of the people, the striving for a better society, and the potential riches of the country are all emphasized. This book is an excellent resource for a visitor to Zambia, or student writing a report. It is a tad out-of-date.
