Monday January 12, 2009 Random ramblings
Monday January 12, 2009 Craig Murray's new book, "The Catholic Orangemen of Togo", is now available (also available on Amazon, and other retailers). He's had to self-publish, as his original publisher withdrew due to legal threats from Tim Spicer. Craig has also made the book available to download for free via the internet:
- Cryptome
- PDF of the full book, including cover and front matter: Mirror1, Mirror2
- Via Bittorrent.
The book is a prequal to "Murder in Samarkand", covering Craig's time in Africa from 1997 to 2001. It's the expected mix of intelligent observation and comments on far-flung countries, geo-politics particularly, as seen by a senior British diplomat; along with more personal tales of people, bravado and women (not always endearing). I pretty much couldn't put it down (electronically speaking) till I'd finished it! Both a very interesting and entertaining read.
