Francis Quarshie

Francis Quarshie, Born on the 5th of August 1956, completed A.M.E, Zion Middle School at Agbozume in the Volta Region of the Republic of Ghana. He rolled quickly through higher education and pursued his first degree in Public Administration at the University of Lagos(UNILAG) Yaba-Lagos, in Nigeria.

Since his moral interest and hobby is travelling, he focuses mostly on tourism. He worked as manager of a travel and tour firm for several years in Nigeria and visited the most important attraction in Nigeria, such as the Yankari Game Reserve, Being a Ghanaian, he decided to come home and contribute his quota to the development of tourism.

However, since there are more beautiful attractions hidden and yet to be mapped up in Ghana, he started on his own small way and did a research in the year 2001. It was during the research period that it dawned on him to come out with this material, which he believes will be beneficial to students pursing tourism courses in both second cycle and tertiary institutions and also enhance promoting and developing of tourism in Ghana.
