Résumé : | An unadorned and poignant account of almost incredible difficulties and achievements, this book is based on reports sent home by Dr. Albert Schweitzer during his second period in Africa, from 1924-27. In it he describes his return from Europe to find his hospital at Lambarene a rotted skeleton, the task of repairing it, and eventually of re-building it entirely on a larger and more suitable site. There are thrilling stories of his fight with the encroaching jungle, his long-enduring battle against disease, and his efforts to gain the confidence and co-operation of the primitive people he is trying to help. |
