Don't bother with This Child Will Be Great: Memoir of a Remarkable Life by Africa's First Woman President , the autobiography of the current president. She is very proud of herself and it comes across in the book, but she is gone a lot and takes credit for all the good stuff here, but none of the blame for the problems. 'The Darling: A Novel ' is a good historical novel that's fairly accurate. Don't waste your money on Cracking the Code: The Confused Traveler's Guide to Liberian English . The people I have heard talking 'local' after reading it just sound stupid and insult the locals. - Dec 2013
