Tim Butcher - Author of Two Books on Africa

What's it like to trek across some of the wildest parts of Africa? Tim Butcher has done two epic journeys that follow the footsteps of two 19th-century explorers:  

  • Graham Greene (West Africa)
  • Henry Morton Stanley (Congo)

Tim Butcher is a British-born author who lives in South Africa. He's written extensively about the continent and knows it well. 

In episode #15 of the WanderLearn podcast, Tim and I discuss his three books:

  1. Chasing the Devil: On Foot Through Africa's Killing Fields
  2. Blood River: The Terrifying Journey Through The World's Most Dangerous Country
  3. Trigger: Hunting the Assassin Who Brought the World to War

This episode packed with stories of adventure in the sketchiest parts of Africa.

The best reason to listen is that you get to hear Tim's delightful British accent.
