Will Randall travels with a purpose, as well as an outrageous sense of fortune. In INDIAN SUMMER he found himself, by chance, having the extraordinary experience of helping slum schoolchildren put on a play to help save their school. In Botswana he was taken up by a headmaster to teach a class of six year olds at The River of Life school. They are football crazy & one of Will`s jobs is to take them to play neighbouring (sometimes as much as 100 miles away) schools. Camping en-route or staying in farms & rural villages, often travelling by foot or dug-out punts, thousands of antelope, elephant, buffalo & zebra follow their progress. The sound of lions, leopards & hyenas become the soundtrack of their dreams. Against all the odds they find themselves preparing for the Grand Final of the season
- the titanic clash with arch rivals, Victoria Falls Primary school. Both an endearing personal story & a travel book about a little-known but highly successful country, BOTSWANA TIME will win new fans for both Will Randall & the extraordinary country of Botswana.
