This version of the life of Adelaide Smith Casely Hayford is largely autobiographical but, while one can honestly express feelings and describe important events in the course of one’s own life time, others can better see the setting in which one lived and how one’s life impacted on and was affected by others.

This book looks at life in Settler country of Liberia, Sierra Leone and Freetown and as a former British colony.
