On a visit to Zimbabwe soon after the country's independence, Paul Murray quickly established enduring friendships with some leading players in the Victoria Falls tourism sector and developed a keen interest in all aspects of the country. From a South African base, very frequent visits to Zimbabwe followed over the following three decades and led to him realising an Africa ambition - buying a house at Victoria Falls. This gave Murray and his wife unparalleled access to the diverse riches of Zimbabwe which, in turn, enabled him to write Bradt's Zimbabwe. His love for Zimbabwe has been driven by local people, whom he regards as "probably the friendliest I've met anywhere in the world". Murray now lives in the UK. See less
