In this magical account, Janvier T. Chando brilliantly establishes the threads that made the young Thomas Sankara one of Africa's iconic leaders in the twentieth century, and the revolutionary changes he brought to Burkina Faso that transformed it into Sub-Saharan Africa's most self-reliant country.
