How does one reduce all the marvellous sprawling ideas that one's mind feel that it has mapped, into a linear sequence that readers can follow?
I want to tell you all about James Bruce. He was known as 'The African Traveller' and 'His Abyssinian Majesty'. I believe that he has been misunderstood, and Iwant to tell people that.
I want to tell everybody why he was important, and why he should not be laughed at for being - perhaps? - a fat dead white male. He had brilliant insights into Ethiopia.
Your heartfelt commitment appeals to me. I am keen to hear more.
