King leopold's ghost

Notes
Andre, the Belgian we met in France.
Didn't he say he led African tours? Is he an offshoot of King
Leopold's focus on the Congo?

Daughter of Fortune by Isabel Allende

Checked out from the rwc library and it is also an Oprah's book club
book.

Hard to avoid the temptation of reiterating the back co er since it is
in front of me right now.

Anyway what I loved most about this book is all that happened after
Eliza Sommers follows her lover to CA during the Gold Rush.

Walking to Bart last night I was thinking about the history of San
Francisco and looking up at the tall downtown buildings.
Thinking about all the different boom times.

I also really enjoyed the character of Tao Chi'en, a Chinese doctor
who helps Eliza stow away on a ship sailing to ca from her native Chile.
