This thoughtful and sobering book by Lloyd Timberlake, published in 1985, offers a comprehensive examination of the environmental crises facing Africa in the late 20th century. Timberlake, an environmental journalist and activist, draws upon his extensive travels and research across the continent to paint a vivid picture of the challenges posed by deforestation, desertification, soil erosion, and other ecological threats. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for preserving Africa’s natural heritage, he delves into the complex interplay of political, economic, and cultural factors that have contributed to these crises. This copy, though showing some signs of wear on the cover, remains in good condition, allowing readers to immerse themselves in Timberlake’s urgent call for sustainable development and environmental stewardship. A valuable addition to any collection focused on African studies, environmentalism, or the history of global conservation efforts.
