Includes local customs and traditions; the impact of history, religion, and politics; the Zambians at home, work, and play; eating and drinking, Zambian style; dos, don'ts,<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>More than an overview of the colorful sights and sounds, these easy-to-follow chapters paint a vivid picture of the psyche of a people who have been shaped by their geography and history, and who are notable for their warmth, outgoing nature, and zest for life. In this large, landlocked country named after the mighty Zambezi River, the "real Africa" of old mixes comfortably with the new. Mineral-rich, with vast untapped agricultural, water, energy, and human potential, Zambia sits on the investor's leader board for Africa. David Livingstone, the Victoria Falls, Lake Kariba--such magical names, together with the spectacular wealth of bird and wildlife make Zambia the upscale safari destination of choice. A nation made up of more than 70 ethnic groups, Zambia has moved through diverse tribal histories, European colonization, socialist philosophy and rhetoric, and, finally, a gung-ho charge into multiparty capitalism.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Culture Smart! has come to the rescue of hapless travellers." --<i>Sunday Times Travel</i><br><br>"Full of fascinating, as well as common sense, tips to help you avoid embarrassing faux pas." --<i>Observer</i><br><br>"The perfect introduction to the weird, wonderful and downright odd quirks and customs of various countries." --<i>Global Travel</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Andrew Loryman </b>lived and taught in Zambia for 20 years, working in mission, government, private and mine schools.
