So happy that Dr. Estella Leopold gave us the history of the battle to save a precious land. Inspiring model of people who care and people who act.

Growing up with Amy as an Aunt I can tell you she sings a mean Blue Christmas.


Milton Esitubi Mary Anita And The Second Liberation In Kenya Consider reading this book full of African passion, culture, social life and politics

Amy Jenkins Hi Ed. A singer and writer--wonderful. I sometimes think I can sing, but my children correct me. Best of luck with your book.

Ed Rambeau Thanks for accepting my friend request, Amy. You seem like an interesting person, as well as an accomplished author, so feel free to tell me more about yourself and perhaps we can grow to become even greater friends. I, myself, am a singer/songwriter/actor who has recently turned author. My 2 top ten recordings were CONCRETE & CLAY (as a singer) and NAVY BLUE (as a writer)...both in the early 1960's. My first novel is an unusual murder mystery entitled: FORBIDDEN STEPS.

Regards, and have a great day, Ed
