Archaeology in Africa
A British writer born in Bristol in 1914, BASIL DAVIDSON has recently finished his new book, THE REDISCOVERY OF AFRICA, which will be published by Atlantic-Little, Brown in the autumn. During the war he served as a lieutenant colonel of infantry in the British Army and was for several months attached to the U.S. Army in Italy. His first books were the result of his extensive travels after the war: REPORT ON SOUTH AFRICA (1952). DAYBREAK IN CHINA (1953).
