'Throughout his career in Botswana, Sandy has championed the cause of history, and in particular the lived history of people in the everyday. It is this humanity and eye for others and appreciation for humility and magnanimity in others that forms a central theme in his study of Botswana.' Professor dr. Jan-Bart Gewald, Director Africa Studies Centre, Leiden; 'You have an important story to tell and I very much doubt that there is anyone else who comes close to having your experience over such a long period - from pre-Independence to today. Bite the bullet and do whatever is necessary to get all this important material into the public domain.' Trevor Bottomley, Botswana's First Registrar of Cooperative Societies; 'Sandy's Botswana memoir is a structured and eclectic collection of reminiscences. There are bits that are funny, many that are inspirational, and others which are disturbing. Sandy has provided many insights into the human condition, culture, and the political situation in Southern Africa.' John Speed, Former director of the European Court of Auditors, District Officer (Development) in Mochudi 1972-74 and Planning Officer (Land) in Government of Botswana 1975-77.
