I always felt guilty for leaving when the war broke out, even if I was a child and had no choice and could have made no difference, so this is my answer to my past—I never really left at all.

 

Here's an abbreviated list of books you might like to look over if you are curious about this remarkable and beautiful country. I apologize because there is no way I can possibly recall every one I read or skimmed in search of material and knowledge.

 

Dr. Luke Nnaemeka Aneke,
The Untold Story of the Nigeria-Biafra War

Zdenek Cervenka,
A History of the Nigerian War 1967-1970

Robert Collis,
African Encounter: A Doctor in Nigeria

John de St. Jorre,
The Brothers' War

K.M. Buchanan and J.C. Pugh,
Land and People in Nigeria

Harry Williams,
Nigeria Free

 

 

 

About the Author

Robin started writing with a fully illustrated manuscript on 'Chickens and their Diseases' as a second grader in Nigeria. In 1967 she and her family were evacuated as the Nigerian Civil War began.

 

As a child she lived in a number of places beginning with 'N'—Nebraska, Nigeria, New Hampshire and New York. Now living in California, she has no intention of going back. She has published short stories under the name Robin Tiffney.

 

Her other career centers on oil painting—both landscape and figure. Her husband, a paleobotanist, corrects the science in both her paintings and her writings, and has acquired considerable skill in ducking flying objects. They have a teenage daughter who also loves to write, and three cats that don't.
