Publisher's Synopsis
This book presents the true-life adventures of an African-American returning to live in Africa. Curtis Morrow 'Kojo-Achampong', lived eleven years in several African countries, both in cities and in the bush. He lived by his wits and by designing and selling jewellery among other things. He was adopted by the tribe of his ancestors (the Ashanti of Ghana West-Africa). The reader sees and feels the villages of Africa as 'Kojo-Achampong' learns tribal customs, drinks palm wine and masters the art of designing jewellery. Above all, a spirit and sense of loyalty, pride and independence of the people permeate this moving account.
