This is a fascinating portrait of the Sudan 50 years ago during the last days
of the British Empire. The author, first a senior lecturer and later a provincial
educational officer, traveled widely in her work. With her husband, she mixed
professionally and socially with sheiks and local politicians, British officials
from the Governor-General down, and with Sudanese of all walks of life. Her
affect for the African nation and its people shines through in this chronicle.
Foreword by James Callaghan.
