A bestseller in Britain, The Africa House vividly details the life of an English officer and gentleman and his remarkable house and colony in deepest Africa.In the ides of the British Empire, Stewart Gore Browne built himself a feudal paradise in northern Rhodesia, a sprawling country estate modeled on the finest homes in England, complete with uniformed servants, daily muster parades, rose gardens and lavish dinners finished off with vintage port in the library.He wanted to share it with the love of his life, the beautiful, unconventional Ethel Locke King, one of the first women to drive and to fly. She, however, was nearly twenty years his senior, married and his aunt. Lorna, the only other woman he had ever really cared for, had married another. Then he met Lornas orphaned daughter, so like her mother that he thought he had seen a ghost. It seemed he had at last found love but the Africa House was his dream, and it would be a hard one to share.Christina Lambs updated account of this fascinating and complicated man a colonialist who beat his servants yet supported independence, a stiff Englishman with deep passions is a masterpiece of biography and storytelling. Set against the backdrop of sweeping change across Africa, this is a tale of fantasies made real, tragedy endured and lifelong love.

The book itself is great, but I was a bit disappointed when it arrived with a dented cover. I still enjoyed the story, but it would’ve been nice to receive it in perfect condition. A bit of care in packaging would have gone a long way.

Interesting but Slow in Parts
While I enjoyed the premise of this book, I found some sections dragged a bit. The author's passion for Africa shines through, but at times I felt it could've been more concise. Still, it's worth a read if you're into travel stories.
