By Bill Bryson
Broadway Books, 2002. 47 pgs. Nonfiction
Invited by CARE International to see first hand a few of their facilities in Kenya, Bill Bryson's African Diary chronicles his eight day visit. Too short (49 pages) to elaborate on any one subject, Bryson still manages to make us laugh with his terrifying plane ride adventure and tug our hearts as we are introduced to a few special Kenyans he meets on along his journey. Bryson wrote this book as a fund raiser for the CARE organization and for that reason one can forgive the book's "short" comings.
