The Long Way Round

Circa 1950. ANTHONY DELIUS is known as one of the finest journalists ever to have worked in South Africa and in this light-hearted, yet shrewd account of his travels from Cape Town to Central Africa and back, there is entertainment a-plenty. He visited the Mau Mau country, Angola, South West Africa, the Congo etc., and his observations on the awakening of Africa are deeply interesting. It is a book which will make many readers wish to follow in the author’s footsteps through a varied and wonderful land.
