West with the Night
by Beryl Markham

I loved this autobiography by British-born Kenyan aviator, racehorse-trainer and good old-fashioned adventurer Beryl Markham. Why am I so nostalgic for an Africa long since past, and so at odds with my own domestic tendencies? Because, living and traveling there, one captures fragments, and they transport you - the light, people, the possibility, the warthogs.
