About the Author
Samuel Kalibala, MD, ABH, is a medical doctor born in Uganda who lives in Maryland, USA, working as an international public health consultant supporting HIV/AIDS programs in Africa funded by the US government. Outside of his day job, he is a primary health care missionary raising funds to support free primary health care services for rural, remote villages in Uganda. When he was young, his nickname was Musa, the reverse of his name, Samu. Hence, he chose the name Musa for the character who plays his role in the book. This book is based on his memories of stories told to him by his parents and his own experiences. It is a historical fiction that spans from 1920, when Musa's father started school, to 1984, when Musa graduated from medical school.
