Book Cover & Preview Text
I was born under the shadow of Mount Elgon, a great extinct volcano in north western Kenya. When I was a boy my days were made up of going to school, tending the cattle, and working in the garden alongside my 7 brothers and sisters. But once my chores were done, my friends and I would roam, and run, and wrestle until our legs gave out and our eyes began to droop. And then we would fall in a heap on the floor wherever we were; a great mountain of happy, sleeping boys. Life in my village was very good, but nothing could have prepared me for the excitement of attending my first Pathfinder campout with children from my village. We crowded into a Matatu and headed out on our adventure.
