Wiping the Tears of the African Cattle Owners: the Long Journey to Rinderpest Eradication

This book is a collective work of many professionals who were involved in all aspects of the activities during the implementation of the Pan-African Rinderpest Campaign (PARC). The various country and regional technical reports of all the actors during those days were however compiled by the three officers who were working with AU-IBAR at that time: Dr. Solomon Haile Mariam, the chief livestock project officer (CLPO) of IBAR, was the task team leader assisted by Dr. Rene Bessin, while Dr. D. Karuiki did most of the information compiling job.
