Books & Music for Africa

Postby upandaway » April 15th, 2009

If anyone is heading to Africa soon and looking for some reading material check out the recommendations I found.

I am currently reading "a long way gone" and it is totally enthralling.

The first album listed is also brilliant.

You should pick up "The World's Most Dangerous Places" by Robert Pelton. Great book.

I read my first Paul Theroux book, Dark Star Safari, while traveling in South Africa and Egypt last year. Awesome writer, and I can't wait to read more from him.
