The Great Ruwaha

The Great Ruwaha, a memoire, is unique in that it uses the life and death of a beautiful river to symbolize the influence our formative years have on our subsequent journey and character.

A literary treasure, enhanced by wonderfully graphic illustrations by the author, the book uses vivacious realism to share with the reader some of the unique adventures and experiences to which the author was exposed when growing up in Africa.

Encompassing the historical effects of European colonialism, it goes on to describe the consequences of Britain’s withdrawal from its African colonies.
