The first-born son and brother to six siblings, author Mohamed
Kamara was just a year old when the civil war started in Sierra
Leone. But it wasnOt until he was six that the war reared its ugly
head in his village, Mile 91 Tonkolili District of the Northern
Province. In the middle of the night, Mohamed and his family fled
into the woods, leaving their burning home behind. In Diamond in
the Rough, he shares the story of his flight from Africa to the
United States. As a young child, he witnessed unspeakable
atrocities while the family struggled to stay alive, hiding in the
woods and journeying from village to village during the night.
Kamara narrates his tale of survival and his return home when the
war ended. In this memoir, he tells of his opportunity to travel to
America, graduating from both high school and Johnson and Wales
University, and creating a nonprofit to benefit his village. Kamara
offers a story of pain, suffering, love, endurance, and courage.
