The life and times of one man's adventure in the African continent. The time span represented begins in Belgium at the turn of the 20th century to date.
Not only will this biography give you an insight into the history of some of the African continent but will tell the tale of one of the millions of colonialists who sought a new life and became bitten by the African bug. Colonialism is often portrayed as an evil thing, and this book does not enter in the debate, but rather represents how life was for those who simply went, for many reasons and circumstances, through the story of Roger Asnong; a farmer, journalist, soldier, adventurer, and above all an African.
