I am currently involved in writing a couple of books.  One of these is called ‘Sam the Rat and other Stories from the Field’.  It consists of a dozen chapters each describing events from my career as a global humanitarian and development practitioner.  Enclosed is a link to one of the chapters (Sam the Rat).  Enjoy it!

The twelve chapters are currently planned out as follows:

• First Steps (Bangladesh)
• Shock Value (Somalia)
• Sam the Rat (Cambodia/Kampuchea)
• Zenica Farewell (Bosnia)
• Khyber Pass (Afghanistan)
• It’s Christmas Time (Ethiopia)
• Feeding the Masses (Mozambique)
• The Natural (Aceh)
• Big Bang (Tonga)
• The Chicken Run (Egypt/Sudan)
• Out of Sight, Out of Mind (Australian bushfires)
• Mission Impossible? (the Rohingya in Bangladesh)
