About me Born in UK, I've spent most of my adult life living and working in Africa (Sudan, Kenya, Uganda and South Africa) in various sectors - education, church, peace, human rights, humanitarian aid and development. I'm passionate about railways and I'm a main line steam locomotive fireman in South Africa. And I'm also passionate about my better half, Jane.
About my library My non-fiction collection probably falls into three main categories: (1) railways, related to my hobby; (2) and (3) spirituality and Sudan/Africa, related to my work. My taste in fiction is eclectic. My books are currently divided between two continents, so the LT online catalogue is very useful for me.

I think we might be safe enough combining it, as I bought it on board a few years ago as well; and it was a guide book/potted history combination. Hopefull the cover image will jog your memory.

Thanks, Donogh

I see you have Denis Hurley's memoirs. If you look in my library you will see two other books about or by him which may be of interest. One is writings of his and the other reflections about him.
