A Memoir

BY WANGARI MAATHAI

Brief Description:
From the first African woman--and the first environmentalist-to win the Noble Peace Prize comes her powerfully inspiring memoir. She was the founder of the Green Belt Movement that has now planted 30 million trees and is spreading around the world. She recounts the obstacles and motivations that have guided her to lead a singularly uncommon life, from a very poor village in Kenya to Deputy minister for the Environment.!p,Vintage
