On the first page of his new book, The Zanzibar Chest, Aidan Hartley asks: "What is a man's legacy?" On his own search for an answer, he spends nearly fifteen years as a correspondent for the Reuters news agency, assigned to Africa and witnessing the most harrowing conflicts of the our time. The violence of the Congo. War in Somalia. Famine in Ethiopia. The unforgettable genocide in Rwanda.
But what sets Hartley apart from most other journalists is that the Africa he covered was not just a land of killing. It is his birthplace and to him, a continent where you hear the song of the nightjar, the chirp of crickets and the chatter of guinea fowl.
