Blood River
A Journey to Africa's Broken Heart
Tim Butcher
Blood River is a thrilling account of a journalist's solo journey through the virtually inaccessible country of Congo, which has historically been associated with dark and turbulent times. The author recreates a journey that was first charted by Stanley in the 1870s, trekking through once-thriving cities marked by abuse and misrule. This book offers a remarkable insight into Congo's history and the challenges faced by its inhabitants.
