Dear Felix, Amos,

For general information of the group, another 
option available is to use the index partition 
technique ("filters") to divide the collection 
into partitions for searching first according to 
specific African leaders then deeper in the 
collection. As Amos says, the best route would 
depend on your the specific needs.

                                         Best regards, John
