Working with Zia: Pakistan Power Politics, 1977-1988 - Hardcover
General Arif was considered to be Zia's right-hand man and the de facto prime minister for some years. His insider's view of the working of Zia's mind and Zia's government will provide a fresh perspective on the politics of the time. The book also covers the trial and execution of Z.A. Bhutto. Arif's assessment of Bhutto and Zia, his account of the violent deaths of both leaders, and his analysis of the main events of the Zia era, merit the attention of any scholar of South Asian affairs.
