French about Africa's pivotal role in shaping world history, underscores Adam Hochschild's contention that French is a "modern-day Copernicus." The title―referring to a brief period beginning in 1957 when dozens of African colonies gained their freedom―positions this liberation at the center of a "movement of global Blackness," with one charismatic leader, Kwame Nkrumah (1909-1972), at its head.

The Sands of Yesterday documents Robert’s emergence from his obsession with his dream girl to ideas for ways to contribute to society in more productive ways, such as by starting the Seed Fund, which evolved into the Providing Point charitable program.

This book compiles the individual books, Seeds of Tomorrow, Fields of Formation, and A Distant Glimmer.
