In 1948 to 1951, Joan Harrison spent three years at a Gold Mine in the colony of the Gold Coast. She wrote 80 letters back to her parents in Nova Scotia. This book includes 20%% of these letters as well as pictures of the mine, the Europeans and the Africans she encountered, and her personal perspectives on her experience. It was during the critical period of transition from the colony to self government and the state of Ghana. A unique record.
