The Role of African Women in the Thirties

Abstract: (5 pp) There are times when we are hearing a story, or an event told by a friend, and we almost automatically say, I can't imagine that. Perhaps that is even why some of us have such a great enjoyment of reading, in that it expands our sense of imagination. We can imagine more as we experience the stories of others. It has been said that the best way to learn of history is not from the facts in a book, but rather from the stories or memories of someone who was in the experience. Such is the case of her 1942 memoir, West with the Night by Beryl Markham. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
