From the Dust Jacket: "Poachers, witch doctors, diamond-smuggling and corruption: Welcome to the world of Botswana's Detective Kubu. They find the first body -- or what the hyena had left -- near a waterhole considered magical by the local bush people. A string of clues suggests that the victim was murdered and his identity hidden. For Assistant Superintendent David 'Kubu' Bengu, it's obvious from the start that sinister forces are at work. On the surface a convivial figure with a passion for his wife, his wine and his music, Kubu is a clever and resourceful lawman, well versed in Botswana's deadliest secrets. As Kubu follows a blood-soaked trail, marked by lies and superstition, he uncovers a chain of crimes linked to the most powerful figures in the country -- influential enemies who will stop at nothing to remove those who stand in their way. In this mesmerising crime debut, Michael Stanley reveals the real Botswana: a modern land caught between traditional culture and globalism, colonial paternalism and independenceÂ". SIGNED by both authors. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine condition/Fine dust jacket. 8vo. (x), 404pp.

This reader, published after World War I, begins with a poem, "The American Boy." It is a dialogue between a father and son about patriotism. According to the author of this reader, the influence of the story "The Poor Little Match Girl" "founded many an orphan home and organized hundreds of societies for relief of the worthy poor," which indicates an emphasis on philanthropy and social work during the era of the Social Gospel.80% of selections taught traditional values."-- Sharon Vincz Andrews ; signature of a youthful Gerald Grout, later a Kansas Ophthalmologist ; GOOD.
