When I looked up the book I found this at the end of an article about the
author... 
So yes, it was the Brian Griffith we knew.
 
 Brian Griffith is a Canadian writer who spent seven years in village
development projects with the ICA in India and Kenya. This article is based
on his book The Gardens of Their Dreams: Desertification and Culture in
World History (Halifax, Nova Scotia: Fernwood Publishing, 2001).

Someone just highly recommended to me this book: 

 

The Gardens of Their Dreams : Desertification and Culture in World History 
by Brian

Griffith (Author)

 

They said they thought Griffith was connected with OE. Is this true?

 

It is a history of how desertification affected history over 10,000 years.
An important topic for today.
