With respect to Lumumba, I would like to
recommend to one and all the novel, _The
Poisonwood Bible_, by Barbara Kingsolver.  It
deals with the events in Congo/Zaire at the time
of independence and especially the role of the CIA
in the death of Lumumba.   It is one of those novels
that comes with a bibliography and the author lived
in the Congo during that period.
