In his spare time, he assisted anthropologists with data-gathering, and accompanied a research team from Cambridge conducting wildlife studies. He also traveled extensively—hitch-hiking through the Ituri rainforest, steam-boating down the Congo river to its mouth; touring Ptolemy’s fabled Mountains of the Moon; camping out near the border of south Sudan; stranded penniless in Nairobi; bartering in the marketplace in Swahili; stumbling onto a jungle enclave of undercover Cold War spies; and waking up to gunfire on the morning Idi Amin staged his bloody military coup. As a youth, growing up in a military family stationed far and wide, he developed an early and enduring interest in the poetry and cultural mythology of the people of the world.view less
