But I recall that our final check of the manuscript was at a house that Richard was renting on Lamu – and Don was with us! That must have been at the beginning of 1977 or in 1978. Best wishes, Roger 24 May 1984.” In this volume, Leakey and Lewin discuss the fossil human discoveries made by Leakey’s team in East Lake Turkana, Kenya.
