Completed mid-March 2012.Another from the famous journalist, & another fascinating read, this time about Africa & its emergence from colonialism. Notable for the author's numerous scrapes with impending execution it also details some of the characters who lead their countries from under colonial rule. It illuminates their personalities & often their tragic fate, with humour & pathos, however not quite as hard-hitting as Imperium. 3/5.
