内容简介:
In A Continent for the Taking Howard W. French, a veteran
correspondent for The New York Times, gives a compelling firsthand
account of some of Africa’s most devastating recent history–from
the fall of Mobutu Sese Seko, to Charles Taylor’s arrival in
Monrovia, to the genocide in Rwanda and the Congo that left
millions dead. Blending eyewitness reportage with rich historical
insight, French searches deeply into the causes of today’s events,
illuminating the debilitating legacy of colonization and the
abiding hypocrisy and inhumanity of both Western and African
political leaders.
While he captures the tragedies that have repeatedly befallen
Africa’s peoples, French also opens our eyes to the immense
possibility that lies in Africa’s complexity, diversity, and myriad
cultural strengths. The culmination of twenty-five years of
passionate exploration and understanding, this is a powerful and
ultimately hopeful book about a fascinating and misunderstood
continent.
