Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. The dust jacket reads: Southern Africa is in a state of political flux. The "necklace" is a ghastly reality to many people living there. So are nightly bloodlettings in many South African townships. Political forces of a variety of hues, from the f…ar left to the entrenched right seek their own solutions to problems that have bedevilled Africa for decades. Sad to say, there is no clear solution in sight, even though the pundits regularly predict anything from a breakthrough to a total collapse. The extremely vocal South African community in voluntary or involuntary exile in London, Lusaka, Harare, New York and elsewhere have been maintaining for years that change in the country is "imminent". The truth is that Southern Africa - and all its composite parts, black or white - is not likely to change its character radically in any significant way. That some form of change must ultimately come, there is no doubt. A glimpse as to what form it will take will perhaps be provided by recent history, of which Africa in this era is making more than enough. Events in other parts of this volatile continent may supply part of the answer. What happened during the sixties and seventies in countries as diverse as Angola, Rhodesia, Algeria, Kenya, Mozambique and elsewhere may shed some rays of light on forthcoming events in Southern Africa. Many of the lessons learnt during the demise of Rhodesia are still applicable to the white South now. Some of the military events in the former Portuguese colonies are also instructive. So is a comparison between South Africa today and French Algeria yesterday. Al J. Venter, a British national, resident in South Africa and African traveller extraodinary who has spent thirty years covering the African beat, has produced a dozen books on the continent and related subjects as well as more than 25 television documentary films on countries in Africa. His films of the Uganda and Afghanistan wars and Aids in Africa have been seen in more than thirty countries, including nationwide over PBS in the United States. Venter originally qualified as a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers in London before turning to journalism. While in Cape Town he was a correspondent for NBS (News) New York; the BBC; London's Daily and Sunday Express; United Press International and International Defense Review of Geneva. He wrote the first book to appear on guerrilla warfare in Southern Africa, published in 1969 by Purnells. His book on the colonial war in Portuguese Guinea was published by the California Institute of Technology three years later. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 526 pages with copious black-and-white photographs ------------------ Orders over $100.00 are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
