The Lassa Ward

by Ross Donaldson

This is an autobiography about the author's 6 week experience in Sierra Leone from the end of June 2003, and then his recovery from an illness he suffered immediately after his return home.  It is a gripping story. The thing that shines through the narrative is the change that is wrought in the author himself as a consequence of the "adventure" he was brave enough to undertake.

Highly recommended - Secondary School students and older
