Richly rewarding, sweepingly informative, highly recommended
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
African Embrace is the riveting account of Dalton Casto's travels and adventures in equatorial Africa during a time of change and turmoil. He lived through successive coups in the wake of the turbulent reign of Ghana's President Nkrumah, and perilously escaped the lawless dictatorship of Uganda's Idi Amin. Often at the center of African history, Casto writes of the threat to the Masaai's way of life, the Kikuyu instigated Mau Mau revolution, as well as humorous accounts of living, working and traveling among diverse ethnic/economic groups (including a desert trek to Lake Rudolph). African Embrace is a compelling, highly recommended combination of travelogue, memoir, political analysis, and eye-witness history that is richly rewarding, highly entertaining, and sweepingly informative.
