Fantastic Invasion....a fantastic voyage

Fantastic Invasion is Douglas Adams in Africa galoshes and all....discovering new tribes like the WaBenzi's and the like. This is a look at the modern African continent with a bit of tongue in cheek and none of the paternalism or simplistic viewpoints that normally pervade literature about Africa and its problems. If you are not a sensitive viewer and want your mind blown away by someone that tells it like it is read this journey through Africa. Notwithstanding that this book is more than 20 years old it still has lessons to teach us all.
