Over het boek
While I worked in Africa as a Peace Corps Volunteer teacher in 1977-1981, I wrote 150 letters home to my parents. These letters formed the basis of my book. I also completed many rural development projects in my spare time to help the people in Sierra Leone. This book includes over 500 photos I took during this time period that brings my letters to life. Many of my African students, who are now adults, will be happy to see photos of their childhood, their family and their friends. I hope this book brings them some happiness. I hope you enjoy reading about my Peace Corps experiences, truly the "toughest job you'll ever love".
