"Lord, I'm Going Where?" is a wonderful book that tells the story of how God moved on the hearts of 2 wonderful Pastors in Uganda to come to the United States with message for America and how that led to a God appointed friendship with Deacon Denny. This book is a "diary" of sorts telling of how Denny and his wife Cindy responded to the call that God placed on their hearts to go to Uganda to preach the gospel there and how HE provided the means to do so and the miracles that were to follow as Denny and the rest of the ministry team traveled through Northern Uganda and encouraged the young pastors there. Your faith will grow and you will be challenged in your own walk while you read this book and for the rest of your life. You too will ask yourself "Lord, I'm Going Where?" when you open yourself up fully to be used by God as Denny and Cindy were.
For me, this book was also a wonderful time to remember and cherish those two Ugandan Pastors, Lawnsome and Martin, who came to our church with Denny and Cindy. We fell in love with them immediately and continue to pray for them and hold them dear to our hearts. I'm so glad that Denny put their "journey" down on paper so that we all can share in the wonderful things that God has and continues to do!!!!

I must have been drunk when I wrote this book. There was no "Ottoman Empire". You have been cruelly deluded.

One is transported into the world of children growing up in the apartheid times. The book is so poignant because the author accesses the child's emotions and observations of extreme circumstances, but the child of course is nonjudgemental. Case combines exquisite sensitivity with a total lack of sentimentality as she describes the actualities of apartheid South Africa.

As usual, Mr. Brown has put in so much creative energy into this brilliant easy to read portrayal of the Lozi people.

A long-neglected family trunk serves as a window into a highly atmospheric mystery set in and around an African mission in 1881. The murdered body of an unsavory Scottish surveyor in charge of a force of African workers is discovered, serving as breakfast for a local stork. It falls to 28 year-old ex-soldier Monteith Ferguson, seasoned veteran of India, to discover his killer. No easy task, given the dead man's penchant for double-dealing and the ease with which he offends both his mission neighbors and the natives on whose good will their lives depend.

In this volatile mixture of misfits surviving in treacherous surroundings, suspicion falls on saints and sinners alike. The detective even suspects himself. Nor does it seem that the mission, threatened by waning support from its backers, can survive the murder of a notorious thief (or is he?)named Wanga. The villagers, holding the missionaries responsible, demand justice in the form of a human sacrifice, and prepare to lay savage visitation to the mission ...

Characters are well-drawn and suspects masterfully developed and kept in constant suspicion, where they belong. Despite the sophisticated plot and its exotic setting, one need not turn back the pages in order to follow the story, whose momentum made me reluctant to put it aside. In the end the central clue, presented so obviously, has been forgotten as though overgrown by vines.

Catanach possesses a droll wit but remains suitably opaque in the classic English tradition. Readers like myself, who enjoy Graham Greene, Eric Ambler and John LeCarre, will be glad to discover this author, too little known despite the warm praise his work has drawn from the New York Times and elsewhere.--G.W.

I own as many books as I could find about this diverse and endangered island, and truly love this book - it's my favorite guide book on Madagascar. Bradt writes from experience and really brings you into the island. If you are thinking of travelling to Madagascar, or just want to learn more, you must get this book. Apparently, it's difficult to get, judging by the 4-6 week time-frame Amazon gives, but it would be well worth the wait. The pictures are as beautiful as the ones in Bradts' other book on Madagascar Wildlife - a must have for any true nature lover.

I have had this book for about 4 years now, and I can't believe it's out of print! I have a deep interest and love for the wildlife of Madagascar, and have not been able to find many books that show the diverse life of this endangered island. To no longer have this book is a shame - if you are looking for a beautifully photographed book that chronicles Madagascars wildlife, don't give up on trying to find this book - it's a true gem.

Madagascar is bigger than Texas. This fourth biggest island in the world, also known as the "Eighth Continent", is located 200 miles off Southeast Africa. It's as remote from the United States as you can get.

In an absolutely scintillating, evocative photo essay, prominent wildlife and nature photographer Frans Lanting explores the essence of this little-known land. Lanting's four-color photographs, in large format, are almost surrealistic at times, ever exciting, and never repetitive. From the cover onward, the show chameleons, lemurs, bottle-shaped baobab trees, needlepoint karst landscapes, eroded fields, and matchless vistas in an unending procession of the strange, eerie, and beautiful. You will be amazed as each page turns to the next. An excellent written narrative compliments the effort well.

The title is double-edged for, as well as being a fascinating anachronism, Madagascar is running out of time in our generation. Human encroachment is rapidly destroying the habitat of numerous creatures found nowhere else. The Elephant Bird, Aepyornis, whose giant egg is being held in a man's arms in the book's cover photo is gone. So is the giant lemur. Others may soon go, as well. This was, and would be, an unspeakable tragedy.

So read the book and enjoy. Then see what you can do to save at least some of this fascinating paradise.

I rate this book very highly.

Derek Schuurman helped put togther an unbelievable backpacking safari through Madagascar for my group and his book helped guide us while we were on adventure and kept us alive! Combines valuable info on places, wildlife, foods, etc plus some nice helpful malagasy phrases.

An extremely rainy summer in Pretoria gave ground to more reading then had been expectet beforehand, and my usual stock of books were not in my posession. This turned out to be a stroke of luck, as it were, because rather than turning to my own, I had to turn to the bookshelves of my landlady. Mafeking road and other storys caugth my eyes; an hour later it had also caught my heart. Bosman spinns storys out of the everyday life in the Groot Maroco district as easely as he use the history of the Transvaal republic as the setting for his tales. His storys are funny, sad, warm and exiting, often all at once. His talent as a storyteller is indesputeble, and his love for the ways and traditions of the people of the Marico is impossible to hide. Not for nothing is his storys said to be the best to ever come out of South Africa. This book has my warmest recomodation. If you read it , you will never regret. If you don't, it is your loss.
