I have read both of these books. I liked both but I think I prefer Fuller's!

***FICTION OR NON-FICTION***
Okay everyone, it's that time of the month - time to nominate! Anyone who would like to nominate ONE book may do so in this thread.
The theme this month is AFRICA (BEFORE 1995) (fiction or non-fiction). I picked a later end date than usual because of all the fairly recent historical events that people may be interested in reading about (the fall of apartheid in South Africa, the genocide in Rwanda, memoirs about recent decades, etc.). You can certainly pick something from much earlier if you wish (doesn't have to be 20th century), and the 1995 end date can be flexible (I just picked it to avoid current situations, political or otherwise).
Please try to check amazon or some other site to make sure the book is easily available - the last thing we want is to nominate some great book that no one can get! If you nominate more than ONE book, only the first book listed will make it into the voting thread (so save additional books for the next months!). Also, if the book doesn't fit the theme, I won't add it to this month's voting list, but I will carry it over to the next theme that it does fit under if you would like.
Feel free to nominate one book of your choice in this thread until October 15th, 9pm Eastern.
At around that time, I'll make a voting poll and list all the nominated books in it, and people can vote in the poll until the poll closes (set to last through October 20th). Discussion will start on December 1st.
Happy Nominating!
