Postmark Africa
Michael Holman's eye-witness reports on the state of sub-Saharan Africa for the Financial Times and other media provide rare insights into the region's post-independence successes and setbacks.

The visual faming and literary wordplay of this engaging art book will appeal to puzzlers and punsters of all ages, angolphiles, and of course to heroic postal workers all over the world.
