A Short Walk in White Africa
A Short Walk in White Africa describes three months spent travelling in Southern Africa in the last years of apartheid and colonial rule, while returning to his University in England. It is a record of a way of life now as departed as the ante bellum world of the southern states of America. The seeming compliance of the Indigenous population is only occasionally broken, and when that does happen, it provides an insight into the coming decades. Some will see this as simply a "romp" around Africa by an undergraduate having an extended gap year, but others might find it a useful insight not only into past, but also as an account of human nature, whereby what is expected to happen in history almost never does, and the most unlikely outcomes seem to prevail.
