An amusing mix of non-fictiond and personal remembrance
Tanzania: Journey to Republic is a mix of historicaly signifigant events and personal rememberings of author Randal Sandleir. Upon reading the book one can gain a better understanding of Tanganyika and Tanzania from both the native and British perspective. Although the book is filled with colorful events that occured to Sandleir's 30 year stay with the Colonial Service at time it lacks the necessary historical content true historians will be looking for. With a forward by Julius Nyerere one can be sure that Sandlier was on the inside track of Tanzania's politics for the time he served as an expatriate.
