1.5
informative slow-paced
Intriguing title, boring content. Far too detail-laden to be interesting. I felt like I was listening to an extended version of a Wikipedia page. The most engaging part was the short piece at the end about Mobutu’s reign of terror, but it came too late to redeem the book. 

Don’t recommend.
