Zam, In - White Gorillas ((1811-1813)(From the Old Josh Series))

There was no worry, or confusing thoughts of the future, for Zam, and his mother, the black boy was eight years old, it was 1811, the future wasn't even on his mind, only the occasional recollections his mother told him to remember, his mother Zamia, to him to remember because of his environment, the tropical forest of the Congo was his home, a most alluring picture of beauty at natures best. The equatorial sun beat through the tense jungle, the leafy sea of green over his head, the canopy of leakage devouring much of the sun. His father was killed by one of the great apes, when during his infancy.
