A review by tichbou
Congo: The Epic History of a People by David Van Reybrouck
adventurous
informative
sad
medium-paced
4.0
a little less gripping than revolusi (which is what made me want to read this book) but van reybrouck's basic formula is a winner and he is a gifted collector of anecdotes.
probably the best single volume on the congo although it is such a massive and important area that any one book is bound to be insufficient.
id be very interested in a book long version of his last chapter, sort of a reverse "china's second continent".
