My Odyssey to the Gold Coast in 1948

Set during the transformative years from 1948 to 1951, this collection features letters from Joan Harrison, who spent three years at a Gold Mine in the Gold Coast. The book includes 20% of her correspondence to her parents in Nova Scotia, complemented by photographs of the mine and the people she met. Harrison's reflections provide a personal perspective on the significant historical shift from colonial rule to self-governance in Ghana, making this a unique record of that era.
