Growing up in Tanganyika, later Tanzania

Loved your book.  I grew up in South Africa, Jo'burg and Durban.  Went to Marist Brothers in Durban - boys only when I was there in mid fifties. Late fifties moved to Southern Rhodesia.  I was a boy scout and spent most of my spare time in the bush.  After leaving school worked as a tobacco farmer in the Palm Block near the Zambezi Valley.  Loved every minute there.  Early sixties at the beginning of the political troubles (bush war) moved to California then Germany and then back to California where I now live.
I have a signed copy of Heia Safari by Lettow-Vorbeck.  I admire him greatly.  Did you know that the Nazis wanted him to join them and when he refused, the Nazis cut off his military pension.  When General Jan Smuts and another English senior General heard about that they had the British Government pay him a pension from a secret slush fund!  That's how much they admired their former foe!
Talked to a fellow today who grew up in Tanganyika as well.  Told him about your book.  I am sure he is going to read it and will probably contact you.  My email address is: [email protected].  It would be nice to hear from you; that is if you have time and inclination.
