JFK's Camelot extended around the world with his Peace Corps. An army of idealistic Volunteers answered his challenge "Ask not what what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country." This memoir takes you to the heart of Africa in the mid-60s, just a few years after Tanyanika independence from Great Britian.

Chunya, a gold boom town during the '30s, was considered "...one of the most undesirable spots in the country" but there the author found his own little paradise. Against the odds, he and his fellow Volunteer found a new family with Samson, the yard boy; Aaron, their cook; the White Father missionaries; and a small army of students sincerely wanting to learn and to know more about the world. No electricity, no telephone, no TV, limited running water, snakes in the outhouse,no luxuries except the tranquility and beauty of Africa. There was fear, hope, loneliness and unbounded joy.

Holes in brackets are not spaced for studs!
Color: White, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 67"W x 6.5"D
So the quality of this not great, but good enough and they look nice enough on the wall. However, the bracket holes are not spaced at 16" intervals. WTF? I'm not sure who designed this thing. The molly plugs that came with it look OK, but to play it safe I used a cobalt steel drill bit and made my own holes in the bracket. Easy enough with some wd40. My other pick with this is that the screws to anchor the shelf to the bracket are black and and very obvious... they should have supplied some kind of cap.

Great quality
Color: Rustic Brwon, Size: 16in
Hassle but they work great. I love the color, the thickness and quality. They do have some weight but in my opinion, I prefer that. Right now the four shelves are holding up my WiFi routers and remotes. Will buy again

Good quality shelves
Color: Walnut, Size: 24in, Color: Walnut, Size: 24in
These shelves are gorgeous in person. Yes, they're darker than the listing pics, but I actually prefer it. The grain is beautiful, they came well-packed, and mounting them was no trouble at all. Now I've got display space that feels both stylish and practical. Definitely worth it!
