African Dream
A Ghanaian teacher in Glasgow attends a conference in Ethiopia where he stumbles across a vision for the future. Convinced that what he has witnessed could have dramatic consequences for Africa, he decides to leave everything behind in Scotland to carry the message to the people. On his journey he has to tackle and overcome a mountain of obstacles. This is a personal quest that examines the hopes and dreams of Africans from a diverse range of backgrounds: from street level to academic to political to religious, both practical and philosophical. Through the voices of the people, this unique take on the problems facing Africa forms an engaging, witty and thought-provoking narrative that aims to empower us all to take the future of Africa into our owns hands. The book gives a flavour of the joys and hardships faced everyday by a broad cross-section of the African community, both at home and abroad. Above all, a spirit of hope for the future and belief that Africa can transform herself permeates every page.

The South African past is rich with stories of courage, initiative and endeavour which have never become history because they are the stories of those excluded from power. This book seeks to transform some of these stories into history: in this case into the history of cricket in Natal, hitherto dominated by the official and the privileged.
