From the publisher

An insider's view of African historians' principal concerns--the slave trade, Christian missions, colonialism, land alienation and nationalism--is presented through this personalized account of a Malawi village from 1859 to the present.

First line

In the middle of the village between the road and the river is a bald hill, a dome of polished gneiss thirty-five metres high.
