About the Book.
Mr. Kenneth Y. Best, Publisher, Liberian Daily Observer Newspaper, wrote: “Martha Sendolo-Belleh has given us a rich introspection into the culture, history and challenges of a young girl growing up in rural Liberia, especially in her native Ganta, Nimba County. From this humble beginning she went on to complete high school among her urban compatriots at the Methodist Girls Hostel and the College of West Africa (CWA) in Monrovia; and onward to college and graduate degrees in Nursing. She carved an enviable career in Nursing, becoming the first African nurse to head the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare. The book gives its readers a profound and insightful reflection of culture and history.

"The book is thought-provoking and exemplary. The language is simple, clear and coherent. It is void of emotion. Lessons to be learned for it are numerous as they are significant. The story of Martha's life is moving."

The Years of My Life by Martha Kau Sendolo-Blleh is a powerful memoir. Martha has not only written about herself, she has also written about some aspects of the Mah Culture of Liberia. Her early life experiences are shared by many of us who grew up in Indigenous Traditional Liberian societies or villages. This is a fascinating reading. This book offers a new and dynamic understanding of what it means to live in transformative life between two worlds.
