Thomas Larson

From Oxford to the Okavango Thomas Larson

World explorer Tom Larson is off on another grand adventure this time with his wife and three small children! First they go to Woodstock, England while he studies for his MLitt degree at Oxford, then they are off to Johannesburg, South Africa where Larson has a teaching position at the Witwatersrand University. During vacations he goes to Botswana to continue studies of the Hambukushu people he started in 1950. There is never a dull moment for the Larson family or the reader as the story moves from their lovely home "The Cardinal¹s Hat" near stately Blenheim Palace Park in England to native African outposts in the vast, wild Okavango River delta country of Southern Africa. This book is an amazing read!Alec Campbell of Botswana states: "Tom is an old time indefatigable explorer who still works on his enormous accumulation of data, lectures to students, and who still works at research in the Society Islands of French Polynesia."
