In 1989 the World Wide Web was invented. It was also the year of Tiananmen Square, the Hillsborough disaster, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the end of the Cold War. In the meantime, over in Africa, a further episode entered the annals of history when Sean McCarthy and Lee 'Shaggy' Walker became the first documented foreigners to attempt to paddle a native dugout down the Congo’s longest navigable stretch. The tale would become the stuff of Congolese legend. SEAN OF THE CONGO is McCarthy's much-heralded account of that unique voyage.
