Autor

Philip Briggs (philipbriggs.com) has been exploring the highways, byways and backwaters of Africa since 1986, when he backpacked on a shoestring from Nairobi to Cape Town. He is the world's leading author of guidebooks to African countries, with more than 30 years' experience. He first explored Uganda by bus and train in 1988, two years after it emerged from a decade of civil war, and returned in 1992 to research the first edition of the Bradt guide. He has since revisited the country on numerous occasions both as a tour leader and to update subsequent editions. During the 1990s, he wrote pioneering Bradt travel guides to countries that were then - and in some cases still are - otherwise practically uncharted by the travel industry. These include the first dedicated guidebooks to Rwanda, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Malawi, Mozambique and Ghana. When not travelling, he lives in the sleepy South African village of Wilderness. British-born Andrew Roberts first visited Uganda with a backpack in 1990 and returned three years later to help the Ugandan Forest Department set up ecotourism projects. Thirty years later he's still living there, now with a wife and two daughters. Andrew considers himself lucky to have worked in every national park in Uganda, settings which he greatly prefers to his office in Kampala. As well as updating several previous editions of Bradt's Uganda, he produces tourist maps of Uganda and East Africa.
