Customer Reviews

A very fine book on Africa, of a different kind

Having extensively travelled through and lived in Africa, I totally enjoyed this book which seeks and captures the perspective of the Africans encountered. This is a welcome break from other authors looking down upon local people. Highly recommended to those planning to go to the region and genuinly want to know/feel more and those who love the region and people.
