 De ijssalon van dokter Harry  -  Bas Vlugt  -  In het voetspoor van Dokter Livingstone
Er is geen gebied in de wereld waar de tegenstellingen tussen verschillende bevolkingsgroepen groter zijn dan in zuidelijk Afrika. Als de jonge programmamaker Bas Vlugt door de redactie van het programma 'In het voetspoor van...' naar Zuid-Afrika wordt gestuurd om veldonderzoek te doen, ondervindt hij dat aan den lijve.
Beginnend in Kaapstad maakt Bas Vlugt een lange reis door Zuid-Afrika, Botswana, Namibie, Zambia en Zimbabwe. Hij bezoekt de
plaatsen waar de legendarische ontdekkingsreiziger David Livingstone in de 19e eeuw langstrok. Een kleurling priester in de trein, Afrikaners in een cafe, zwarten in een township en een dronken Nederlandse arts in een desolaat provinsiestadje in Zambia.

De ijssalon van Dokter Harry is een schitterende reisroman. Op nuchtere en humoristische wijze geeft Bas Vlugt een beeld van het zuidelijk Afrika van Livingstone en het zuidelijk Afrika van nu.

Bas Vlugt is freelance journalist. Hij schrijft over marketing en media voor vaktijdschriften als Adformatie en Emerce. Daarnaast maakt hij reisgidsen over Afrika, een continent dat hij als het even kan meerdere malen per jaar bezoekt.

 Hadzabe
Small groups of Hadzabe bushmen live around Lake Eyasi. Their language resembles the click languages of other bushmen further south in the Kalahari. Their small population was seriously threatened, in particular during the period when Julius Nyere tried to introduce his Ujuma policy. The tribe resisted the forcible settlement policies of Julius Nyere and nowadays most of their children have never seen a doctor or school - the bush provides for all their needs and is a class room for their offspring

 Kilimandjaro  -  de berg Kilimanjaro
Highest mountain in Africa (5,896m) and the tallest free standing mountain in the world. Three volcanic centres, Shira, Mawenzi and the ice and snow-capped Kibo add character to this dormant mountain.
The vegetation bands range from the lush forests that completely encircle the slopes to the permanent ice fields gracing the peaks of the mountain. The fauna includes black and white colobus monkey, blue monkey, bushbuck, eland, leopard, elephant, buffalo and the rare Abbot's duckier.
 Lake Eyasi
A mildly alkaline lake stretching for about 50km to the south-west. To the north-east the horizon is dominated by the Crater Highlands, to the north, beyond an escarpment the plains of the Serengeti. Over 100 years ago when the stronger Masaii tribes moved into the Ngorongoro and Serengeti, the Datoga and other indigenous bushmen living there were pushed south. Many made Lake Eyasi and its surrounding bush and forests their home.

This collapsed volcano is the largest, unbroken caldera in the world and spans 260sq. kms. Remnants of an evergreen temperate forest, extinct in the rest of East Africa still exist within it. The forest's cedar and pillar trees are gloriously draped with lichens, ferns and orchids. 
Ngorongoro Crater is home to elephant, buffalo, hyena, jackal, wildebeest, zebra, Thompson's and Grant's gazelles, eland, hartebeest, black rhino, waterbuck and hippo. The large number of plains game attract the predators: black-manned lion and sometimes leopard.
 PBS  -  Living Edens  -  Ngorongoro, Africa's Cradle of Life
Nearly three million years ago, a massive explosion tore apart an enormous statovolcano in Eastern Africa's Great Rift Valley to form the Ngorongoro Crater, one of the true wonders of the world. Today, the Ngorongoro Crater is a microcosm of African life enclosed in an unique place. This Living Eden is a glorious stage where lions, hyenas, cheetahs, jackals, vultures, servals and wildebeest act out a dramatic story of life and death that was set into motions so long ago.

Ofwel John Rowlands, Amerikaans journalist. Werd in 1869 door zijn hoofdredacteur uitgezonden om de in West-Afrika vermiste schotse missionaris David Livingstone op te sporen.
