Back in 2007, recommending Peter Delmar's The N3 Book, a fascinating compendium of stories related to places through which the N3 passes, I concluded that anyone "who has ever pressed foot to accelerator on the N3 should not be without a copy". Well, substitute N4 for N3 and the same applies to The N4 Book—The Road to Maputo. – Stephen Coan, The Witness.

The glossy pages, with their fascinating facts of history, geology, feats of engineering and mining, include beautiful scenic photographs, as well as historic pictures. There are also stories of off-the-beaten-track places. Turn your journey into an adventure. Buckle up and journey the ride. – Caroline Fish, the Times
