"When I travelled to West Africa, it was simple to fulfil a long-time desire to bond with the land of my ancestors. I had no intension to write a book and did not even take notes. However, when I returned to Toronto, I invited some friends over to share my photographs and anecdotes about the journey. My friends were so fascinated with my experience, they insisted that I share the story with the world. 'Write a book about it,' they said. I rose to the challenge and wrote Into Africa A Personal Journey."
