"For my travel books I travel on a theme. And the theme of 'The Masque of Africa' is African belief. I begin in Uganda, at the centre of the continent, do Ghana and Nigeria, the Ivory Coast and Gabon, and end at the bottom of the continent, in South Africa. My theme is belief, not political or ecconomical life; and yet at the bottom of the continent the political realities are so overwhelming that they have to be taken into account..." V.S.Naipaul, from the inside front cover
