An extraordinary, passionate and personal journey into Africa's past. Stephen Taylor travels from Lake Victoria to the Cape of Good Hope, from the place that represents the peak of colonial exploration in Africa to the first settling place of his own family. His description and re-evaluation of the colonial period shows it in all its drama, glamour and disreputableness. His journey will be a quest for understanding: of the colonial impulse, of his own curious ambivalence towards the great continent in which he grew up, and of the southern African countries' future.
