Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an autobiographical account of the life of Bata Kindai Amgoza Ibn Lobagola, a Black Jew and self-proclaimed "civilized savage" who left his native African village to experience the advancements of Western civilization. He speaks of his travels, both in peace and war, his disillusionment with the so-called civilized world, and his ultimate decision to return to his homeland, where he continued to view himself as an outsider within his own people. Through his unique perspective, the author offers a critique of both African and Western societies, challenging assumptions about morality, progress, and the human condition. Ultimately, his insights shed light on the inherent differences and similarities that shape human experience across cultures, highlighting the universality of certain struggles and the importance of self-acceptance amidst societal expectations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
