"In 1815, deep within Africa, a fifteen-year-old prince of the Matabele nation is captured and sold to slave traders in Mozambique. As he travels on a ship bound for America, the prince realizes he will never again hear his name--Atachawayo--cried out in greeting. But as soon as the ship docks in New Orleans, Samuel, as he is now known, escapes with a member of the slave ship's company and enters into a bargain that will change the direction of his life forever. After he becomes the shadow master of a large plantation in Georgia, he begins planning his revenge against the man who brought him to America in chains ... As he begins what will become a thirty-five-year journey from the confines of slavery to the joy of freedom ... Samuel stops at nothing to fulfill his promise to himself to achieve total revenge."--Back cover

African Son is a record of the author’s many trips to Africa—as a Peace Corps volunteer, Fulbright scholar, teacher, and traveler—over the course of thirty years. These personal essays range from sympathetic descriptions of village life in Senegal and Cameroon to detailed accounts of the rich physical and natural worlds in Zimbabwe, Malawi, and Madagascar to a mock-curriculum vitae for a Cameroonian man whose skill-set is surprisingly extensive. A work of creative non-fiction, African Son describes individual and, later, family experiences in a number of African locations, from villages to major urban centers and from desert to thick, tropical forest.

The African Child author tells it as it happened from the harrowing childhood experience to the ups and downs of his adulthood in the African capital cities and the rural typical village. The interesting mix of hard work and faith in Gods Providence makes for an exhilarating reading that challenges African policy makers. The authors critical assessment of the Nigerian crisis in the mid sixties soon after Independence as he places blame on both sides of the conflict depicts the writers sense of impartiality to be encouraged by political leaders particularly in Africa. This book examines thoughtfully the various stages in human development and finds no excuse in the down trodden level of the black man from his native land in Africa to his imposed second home anywhere, particularly in the United States. In the closing chapters the book exposes the hardship, the loss of human dignity and personal exploitation of all black people from the days of the slave trade till today. The book challenges the conscience of world leaders and calls for Reparation for slavery and colonialism. Besides, the author seeks to inculcate the spirit of self respect in all African people maintaining that self respect is the smoothening oil for human dignity while chastising all races of mankind to judge a person not by the color of his skin but by the content of his character, as Dr. Martin Luther King. Jr. admonished. This is a must read for all civil rights activists, college young students and world leaders and politicians. Asuzu Agwunobi
