5.0 out of 5 stars
A remarkable story of medical experiences in East Africa.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Daktari Yohana: An American Pediatrician in East Africa (Paperback)
Dr. Hult has written a truly remarkable story of life as a missionary pediatrician in East Africa. His writing is at all times clear and concise. He brings to life an era in this former British colony then called Tanganyika. For those of us who were there, and who recall the people and places he writes about, it's a nostalgic trip into the past. But for those who weren't there, this book paints pictures that portray humor and pathos, successes and failures, adventure and routine, life and death in a primitive African culture. A must-read for everyone interest in missions, African culture, or just the people themselves.
5.0 out of 5 stars
