Azanne Kofi Akainyah

A fascinating set of stories, providing unique insights into life during the transition from the Gold Coast, one of the British Empire's West African gems, to the modern Republic of Ghana, and the extensive interactions with the UK and the rest of the world. They are based on a wealth of well-referenced contemporaneous material. These memoirs chronicle the forces at play in the complex and multi-layered process of self-determination and emerging nationhood, which wrought a dreadful toll on the lives of individuals as cultures and ideologies, egos, and aspirations collided. Refreshingly candid, humorous, and witty in parts, Azanne Akainyah shares recollections of his life, warts and all, laced with provocative and challenging reflections on universal issues. A must-read!”

Christiana Hyde MA (Cantab), Retired Employment Judge,

A must-read book for those interested in “the African story”. It brings to life important aspects of this story from a unique and personal angle that grips the reader from beginning to end. It covers significant events in Ghana before and after the overthrow of Nkrumah and also the unfortunate happenings in Liberia, Sierra Leone, and the Gambia. It portrays how familial, ethnic, and parochial interests have played major roles in these events. Akainyah sets the pace in revealing another side of the African story.
