AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- MC Endeavors, Inc. (PINK SHEETS: MSMY) announced that Christopher Publishing has just re-released the well received book "Waiting for Rain: Life & Development in Mali, West Africa” that was penned by Board Member and Director U.S. Ambassador Lewis Lucke. It will also be available on Kindle in a couple of weeks as well. Lucke wrote this book after his experience in Mali when he served there as part of the U.S. Foreign Service. “I am still waiting on the movie version...” says Lucke. Here is the jacket description below:
"Waiting for Rain" is the story of a young, novice development professional who leaves the comfort of the United States to live and work in Mali, one of West Africa's poorest but most interesting and authentically African countries. Mali boasts one of the lowest GDPs and some of the most intractable development challenges in the world, but it is the home of Timbuktu, the Niger River, Dogon cliff dwellers and the mud mosques of Mopti. Though the country is culturally fascinating, can you ever get over the shock of working in such an impoverished country where life expectancy is 41 and a major drought is just coming to an end? What kind of development programs can you hope to put together to effectively address the problems of Mali? And since this is important work that touches the lives of real people, when all is said and done, will you have succeeded or not? "Waiting for Rain" may be of interest to those interested in other cultures, travel, Africa, international social issues and development buffs. Without being overly technical, the book treats a serious subject - economic development - while viewing the personal side of living and working in Mali.
Lewis Lucke is the former U.S. Ambassador to Swaziland as well as the former U.S. Response Coordinator for the Haiti earthquake. Lucke also served as the first USAID Mission Director for Iraq and sits on the Board of Directors of MC Endeavors, Inc. MC Endeavors CEO Tim Algier emphasized that, “Ambassador Lucke has been dedicated and compassionate about helping less-fortunate cultures throughout his travels around the world. His on-the-ground experience in Haiti will be invaluable in helping Haitians rebuild and develop a new economy.”
