'A powerful blend of family history and war correspondent's memoir...searing, deeply instructive.' Anthony Daniels, Sunday Telegraph

'A truly impressive and haunting book, an impassioned and often beautifully written account of one man's journey to the heart of darkness, and his slow, painful voyage back.' Harry Ritchie, Daily Mail

'Underpinning the grisly details of wars in Somalia, Ethiopia, Rwanda and Burundi that Hartley experienced first-hand and at no small emotional cost to himself, is a touching story of his childhood in colonial Africa.' Iain Finlayson, The Times

'Wonderful and everywhere remarkable...Hartley writes with love and an astonishing zest.' Allan Massie, Daily Telegraph

'"The Zanzibar Chest" is a necessary book...you will struggle to find a more authentic, urgent or brilliant account of the underbelly of contemporary Africa...this book seems destined to become a classic.' Christopher Ross, Sunday Express

A masterpiece. This is a hugely ambitious book.' Matthew Leeming, Spectator

'No other African correspondent has been so successful in blending both hard reporting and laddish on-the-road antics within a personal and lyrical framework. Hartley evokes the excitement and pathos of the modern continent...he is perhaps the best mzungu writing about the real Africa today.' Andrew Lycett, Sunday Times

'Hartley always writes beautifully...gripping and intensely moving.' James Astill, Guardian
