Africa United is the story of modern-day Africa told through its
soccer. Traveling across thirteen countries, from Cairo to the
Cape, Steve Bloomfield meets players and fans, politicians and
rebel leaders, discovering the role that soccer has played in
shaping the continent. He recounts how soccer has helped to stoke
conflicts and end wars, bring countries together and prop up
authoritarian regimes.
A lively and elegantly reported travelogue, Africa United calls
attention to the amazing relationships between people and soccer,
and to the state of Africa on the cusp of the biggest moment in its
sporting history, the 2010 World Cup.
