<p>Tired of tragic stories, Chris Harvie sets out to see the<br>positive side of the 'Dark Continent' and to enjoy its life and<br>laughter. Do Not Take This Road to El-Karama is the entertaining<br>account of an epic road trip that takes him from his<br>home outside the Kruger National Park to the banks of the<br>Nile in Uganda – and back again.<br>In his haphazard and somewhat eccentric travels, Harvie<br>encounters missionaries and mechanics, locals and ex-pats,<br>rascals and rogues. Delving into his own mixed British and<br>South African identity, he tries to fathom – in his trademark<br>witty and sardonic style – the post-independence national<br>character of the southern, central, and east African countries<br>through which he and his companions pass.<br>Delightfully opinionated, brimming with interesting facts,<br>questionable comment and dubious speculations, this book<br>is essential reading for anyone with more than a passing<br>interest in Africa, travel, history and people; in a good read;<br>or simply in being alive.</p>
