Book Description
Catering to both the backpacker and upmarket tourist, this guide includes authoritative history and wildlife sections plus accommodations and restaurant recommendations and a wealth of background and practical information.
From the Back Cover
Increasingly popular with first-time visitors to Africa, Ghana extends an exuberant welcome to its many unsung attractions. Seek out a deserted tropical beach, or plunge into the waterfalls of the eastern highlands; feed the sacred crocodiles at Paga, and marvel at the elephants of Mole National Park. Or, more soberly, relive the chilling history of the coastal slave forts.
Inside you will find:
* The most comprehensive guide to Ghana available, now fully updated
* Where to stay, where to eat, how to get around
* Ghanaian culture, from social traditions to kente cloth weaving
* Natural history and national parks
* 58 clear maps and town plans
