Best Book Editors Review

The blurb ends by saying “Let’s go on an unforgettable journey together,” And short of packing a backpack and getting on a plane that’s exactly what it is. It’s travelling vicariously with another human being, seeing what he sees, and breathing his air.

Terry Lister takes his readers on an amazing journey through the living landscapes and vibrant cultures of Africa. He paints vivid pictures of the breathtaking scenery and creates a sense of being there, that leaves you yearning for more.

The book transports you to the heart of some remarkable African nations, immersing you in their beauty and diversity. Lister’s passion for exploration shines through every page as he shares his encounters with local people, and providing insights into their cultural heritage. Lister captures the hidden wonder of each place, and tells you the bits you won’t find in a guidebook. He makes it personal and that’s the best part.

This book inspires a deep appreciation for the resilience and warmth of people living in less affluent places. Lister’s respect for local tradition and curiosity, creates a bridge between them, and fosters a sense of understanding.

This book is your passport to discovery, and embarking on your African adventure. It’s a blend of travel, personal experience, and cultural immersion that leaves you with a sense of wanderlust to explore the world. My favourite parts were the Poubara Falls and the Quiver Trees.

This series of books is a must-read for anyone seeking adventure, and a deeper understanding of Africa. I loved it. Highly Recommended

Lister embarks on a trip around West Africa after years of curiosity and shares his experiences in a very personal way in this fantastic book. There are many good and bad experiences and plenty of great pictures to illustrate them.

Bad experiences include getting hounded for hours by the corrupt immigration officers of Mauritania. Our host travels around in a sept-place car. Everything you would expect from a travel book is included like the food and beverages, the wildlife, the monuments and the history. You learn things reading this book too such as The African Renaissance Monument in Senegal is Africa’s tallest statue and is higher than the Statue of Liberty and Christ the Redeemer. Lister also ventures into Guinea-Bissau, ranked #192 in the world’s most popular tourist destination countries. There are many deeper facts among the pages which will astound you.

There’s a lot to take in and a lot to bear visiting the countries described in this book but Lister approaches his journey in a very optimistic way, whilst trying not to get too emotional. It’s not a travel guide, it’s a travel story, told from the man next door. I would definitely recommend that you read it.

love to read

Terry is a brave, patient, adventurer. Visiting places off the beaten track in Africa, where so few dare to go. The pictures in this book really help to give you full understanding of what he has seen and done. I especially liked the encounter with crocodiles at a park with no tour guide in sight or fence’s to keep them away. if you are thinking of going travelling in this area, this is a great book to help you decide what to do and what to see.
