Kofi Annan
by Fred Eckhard
Fred set about writing this in a quite interesting way, which is he did drafts of the various chapters, and then he sent them around to all his friends and colleagues and people who knew Kofi well and had worked with him. And he asked for their comments, and that of course stimulated pretty much all of us, to write back saying, “Well yes that’s right” or “No, that’s not quite right, but what you haven’t mentioned is this…” So the account gradually got filled out.
