DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Two Trips to Gorilla Land and the Cataracts of the Congo After a languid conviction during the last half century of owning some ground upon the West Coast of Africa, England has been rudely aroused by a little war which will have large consequences. The causes that led to the Ashantee Campaign, a negro copy of the negroid Abyssinian, may be broadly laid down as general incuriousness, local mismanagement, and the operation of un principled journalism.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhen the author first moves to eastern Congo, she stumbles through a new language and culture, trying to construct a life for herself in a city built on the edge of disaster. In search of community, she becomes friends with Argentine and Mapendo, two young Congolese women who navigate their perilous lives on crutches with camaraderie, laughter, and faith. This story follows the three women's decade-long friendship, a relationship that spans continents, and leads to a world they never could have imagined. ¿¿The Place Between Our Fears is at once a love song to Congo and a gripping account of war, poverty, and displacement. Ultimately it is an unforgettable story of hope and friendship and a call to community in the face of every fear.
