She writes of strong and soft hearts of the African people, how it keeps beating, sending off knowledge, pleasures and wonders of the Motherland. The book is not academic or political. It is simply about African American Johnnie Mae Moore and her experiences in Africa.In her own words, Johnnie Mae Moore says about My Beloved Africa - Farewell, "These experiences are about ME. They have given ME pleasure, adventure and insight into the culture of my ancestors in order to understand my own life. I am a wiser, stronger, older, kinder and happier person because of it."Excerpts may be found and autographed copies ordered at www.afgasalon.org/johnnie

This is a new paperback edition of Beloved African, originally launched at Adelaide Writer's Week in 2000, in response to a sudden and gratifying swell of demand, as this powerful story taps into a constantly increasing pool of readers. Original hard cover and paperback issues are now out of print. An immensely powerful love story it is certainly - but with such insight into how Headmaster John Hammond battled first, to persuade Africans to send their sons to school in the 1930's, then rode the whirlwind as demand grew out of all proportion to the country's capability to meet it. He strode an increasingly political stage - fighting to educate and skill enough youngsters for the critically important task of running a new country. First at Tjolotjo - agriculture, leatherwork, metal work carpentry - then to Mzingwane, as the pupils themselves built the school as a project - ending as Head of Goromonzi with 6 years of academic learning. The story comes to life through Nancy Hammond's precise memory for detail, hundreds of letters written and lovingly preserved since they met and a series of tape recordings with John,18 months before his death 1996. The agonies of what occurred and the effects it had are described with candour and clarity. Absorbing tales of dedication and effort, so often thwarted by political duplicity. READER REVIEWS Peter Winhall: Cape Town: I write to say this book is terrific, and some of the published speeches from headmaster John Hammond are simply stunning! Where else does one find the reality of those times expressed so clearly? What a man; what dedication! What tough times!... staggering. The power of "Beloved African" apart from being a true love story, is that it gets across the enormity of the task of not only creating the infrastructure, but actually educating the indigenous natives in an endeavour to bridge the gap and create a thriving and prosperous nation. Bearing in mind that every piece of galvanised steel, every nut and bolt, and virtually everything one can imagine that didn't come from an animal's hide, or from mud, grass or wood, had to be brought in by ox wagon from 1000 miles away! "Beloved African" delights in bringing the gigantic task to life and what people did through unbelievable dedication. Scott Hatfield: Penticton, Canada My good friend Joe Hermann, kindly mailed me a copy of your wonderful book, Beloved African, in 2003. Born in Southern Rhodesia in 1936 I lived every well-written episode in the book. John Hammond was a hero. Lima Hotel: 5* This completely truthful and deeply insightful biography of John Hammond has thrilled, informed, moved me to tears, filled me with joyful nostalgia, made me seethe with anger. A truly brilliant historical read. Helen Bowyer: 5* A terrific book with so much information in it that describes the agony of people like Hammond whose only desire was to see the African race progress in all areas of life. Oh if only all teachers had the same heart. CRIT: South African best sellers: Guardian March 2000 Antoinette Bain Respect, honesty and integrity were values John Hammond regarded highly and which he tried to instil in his pupils and staff. Many became leaders in their fields of expertise. The subject matter is serious, but the book reads easily and moves along at a sufficiently fast pace to keep the reader interested without losing sight of the importance of the issues concerned. Beloved African is a book filled with thought provoking material. In a time when Africa's history is being re-written to reflect a more balanced view a valuable addition to the reading lists of historians, politicians and concerned citizens ali...

Kathy was born in Rhodesia in 1953. She has an enduring affection for Zimbabwe- the freedom, the space, the friendly people and the beautiful weather. Although she has been through incredibly tough times, she writes about the tragedies she has faced with openness and great feeling, her faith helping enormously in overcoming them. With a sense of humour and a deep-rooted love of Africa, Kathy tells her story vividly, portraying the excitement and adventure experienced by her family as settlers in the early days of Rhodesia. The unbelievable hardships they suffered, their amazing perseverance in the face of adversity, and their tough pioneering spirit live on in Kathy to this day. But as well as recounting the misfortunes, Kathy writes about happier times- her family's adventures on the islands off the East African coast; the solitude that can only be experienced in the African bush; the camping safaris at Kariba, despite the ever-present risk of encountering hippo, crocodiles and other wildlife. Kathy now lives a full and contented life in Harare, giving talks and counselling those who have lost loved ones. But most of all she keeps her sense of humour, her love of life, friends and family, and she enjoys all the many good things about living in Zimbabwe.

From the ancient Egyptian inventors of the love lyric to contemporary poets, Bending the Bow: An Anthology of African Love Poetry gathers together both written and sung love poetry from Africa. This anthology is a work of literary archaeology that lays bare a genre of African poetry that has been overshadowed by political poetry. Frank Chipasula has assembled a historically and geographically comprehensive wealth of African love poetry that spans more than three thousand years. By collecting a continent’s celebrations and explorations of the nature of love, he expands African literature into the sublime territory of the heart. Bending the Bow traces the development of African love poetry from antiquity to modernity while establishing a cross-millennial dialogue. The anonymously written love poems fromPharaonic Egypt that open the anthology both predate Biblical love poetry and reveal the longevity of written love poetry in Africa. The middle section is devoted to sung love poetry from all regions of the continent. These great works serve as the foundation for modern poetry and testify to love poetry’s omnipresence in Africa. The final section, showcasing forty-eight modern African poets, celebrates the genre’s continuing vitality. Among those represented are Muyaka bin Hajji and Shaaban Robert,two major Swahili poets; Gabriel Okara, the innovative though underrated Nigerian poet; Léopold Sédar Senghor, the first president of Senegal and a founder of the Negritude Movement in francophone African literature; Rashidah Ismaili from Benin; Flavien Ranaivo from Madagascar; and Gabeba Baderoon from South Africa. Ranging from the subtly suggestive to the openly erotic, this collection highlights love’s endurance in a world too often riven by contention. Bending the Bow bears testimony to poetry’s role as conciliator while opening up a new area of study for scholars and students.
