""Rich . . . fascinating."" --The New York Times Book Review
""A master of eyewitness description and of the telling interview, [Maier] has unearthed Africa's hidden heroes and heroines."" --Financial Times
""Maier has written a sensitive and complex narrative. . . . excellent descriptions of the lives and experiences of both ordinary and extraordinary individuals in different parts of Africa."" --Richard Leakey, The Times (London)
