Book excerpt: Colonialism: bad, bad, bad word. Nothing good to say about it. Really? For a pugnacious Scottish policeman seconded to Sierra Leone Police Force as part of British aid, it is his misfortune to be present when the largest diamond robbery in history occurs on 3rd November 1969 and sparks begin to fly when he rubs up against the new reality post-independence. At the same time, he takes over the case of the murder of a prostitute, refusing to allow her crime to be consigned to the dustbin without investigation, alienating the expatriate community in the process. Secret police, Lebanese diamond dealers, a naked madman, a medicine man addicted to his own herbal remedies, a sex-bomb in the British High Commission, ready to use her body to further her future - these are just some of the kaleidoscope of people who live and die or flourish and fade in the shade of the Cotton Tree. Inspired by true events, the book is a sad commentary on a country that should have been one of the richest in Africa and is now the poorest. The Cotton Tree in Freetown (otherwise known as the Kapok Tree) is the oldest living tree of its kind in Sierra Leone and stands as a symbol of freedom to the freed slaves who were returned to Sierra Leone. It owes its longevity to the softness of its flesh which has limited commercial uses, one of which is the box used to contain Camembert cheese.

Book excerpt: A beautifully written debut novel of a young Indian woman struggling between embracing her heritage and fitting in as an American In Oak Grove, California, 1976, there are as many Sikh temples as Christian churches, the city council has prints announcements in both English and Punjabi and the large Indian immigrant community is gracefully coexists with the old farming families. But for 15-year-old Jeeto, figuring out where she fits best—and what she must do to find that fit—isn't so easy. Jeeto soon realizes that the women around her do far more than drink tea on balmy California afternoons—their traditions and religion give shape to fortune and destiny in a world of arranged marriages and strict family politics that force Jeeto to struggle with reconciling the possibilities of freedom and love. In the tradition of Jhumpa Lahiri and Arundhati Roy, Under the Lemon Trees is poised to speak to this same audience in an historically successful market. A stellar debut from an acclaimed writer, this is a story about finding love and discovering a true home while navigating traditions, family and faith—part Bend it Like Beckham, part Monsoon Wedding, this is a cultural and romantic tour de force.

Download or read book African-American Exploration in West Africa written by James Fairhead and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2003-11-13 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1860s, as America waged civil war, several thousand African Americans sought greater freedom by emigrating to the fledgling nation of Liberia. While some argued that the new black republic represented disposal rather than emancipation, a few intrepid men set out to explore their African home. African-American Exploration in West Africa collects the travel diaries of James L. Sims, George L. Seymour, and Benjamin J. K. Anderson, who explored the territory that is now Liberia and Guinea between 1858 and 1874. These remarkable diaries reveal the wealth and beauty of Africa in striking descriptions of its geography, people, flora, and fauna. The dangers of the journeys surface, too -- Seymour was attacked and later died of his wounds, and his companion, Levin Ash, was captured and sold into slavery again. Challenging the notion that there were no black explorers in Africa, these diaries provide unique perspectives on 19th-century Liberian life and life in the interior of the continent before it was radically changed by European colonialism.
