Book Review: Falling Seven Times, by Mark Wentling (Honduras 1967-69 & Togo 1970-73)
· Publisher : Archway Publishing (August 31, 2024) · Language : English · Paperback : 318 pages · ISBN-10 : 1665763213 · ISBN-13 : 978-1665763 219 · Available on Amazon.com : Falling Seven Times I’ve read and reviewed several of the author’s books. We were both Peace Corps Volunteers in Central America and worked in West Africa, although Wentling went on to work and travel in 54 African countries over the years. My favorite book from his “African Trilogy” is “Africa’s Embrace,” which is fiction but reflects his experience working as a Peace Corps Volunteer in West Africa in the 1970s. This book begins in Ethiopia with a young woman’s struggle to be a migrant worker to support her family. It is a fictional story based on her experience with his Ethiopian wife. She became a naturalized citizen in 2019. . . .
