Greetings from Ouagadougou. I was born in Wichita, Kansas in 1945, but 'made' in Africa. I left Kansas in 1970 to become a Peace Corps Volunteer in Togo.

I have had the privilege to visit or work in all 54 African countries. My books stand asa testement to my lifetime of involvement with this vast and complex continent.
