I just finished reading 'The Shackled Continent - Africa's Past, Present and Future' by Robert Guest. 2004. An international best seller.
This was an enlightening, thought- provoking book and I recommend it to anyone with an interest in Africa. The book gives brief histories of several African countries. It also gives explanations and possible solutions to Africa's state of affairs.

I'll check it out! I'm so glad you told me about this blog--can't wait to read every post. :)
It would be great if there were truly a solution to Africa's problems .. there is so much potential there, but it always seems to end up in local warfare.
I'll look for the book .. thank you for the recommendation!
