Following in the wake of Vasco de Gama, Peter Marshall set off in 1992 to circumnavigate the continent of Africa. On his way, he went deep into the interior of many countries, spending time with drummers in Senegal, pygmies in Cameroon and lions in Tanzania. This is a record of his travels.
Following in the wake of Vasco de Gama, Peter Marshall set off in early 1992 to circumnavigate the huge continent of Africa. Having been warned that he might never make it, he found himself travelling on a wide variety of craft, ranging from a Portuguese caravelle, a Moroccan fishing boat, French, German, Greek and Polish container ships, a sanctions-busting South African cargo ship and a Swahili dhow to an Italian cruise ship. On his way, he went deep into the interior of many countries, spending time with drummers in Senegal, pygmies in Cameroon, NC militants in South Africa, war refugees in Mozambique, lions in Tanzania and the ghosts of pharaohs in Egypt. His voyage took him over seven months on a dozen ships, through four seas, fifteen countries and 17,000 miles and was a voyage of self discovery as well as the discovery of a continent.
