Ghana: The Happy and Peaceful Country.

Whether for its Hospitality, Culture or Tradition, Ghana has an impact on visitors that is out of proportion to its relativly small population.

Show me the most beautiful beach that you know in the world and I will show you one of many in Ghana that is more beautiful and unique.

This book will not only try to tell you where to go in Ghana, but also attempt to introduce you to the History, Culture and Traditions of a people who have a lot to say to the rest of the world.
