Items related to Warriors: Life and Death Among the Somalis
This superb portrait of one of the world's most desolate, sun-scorched lands, inhabited by fiercely independent tribesmen, is Rageh Omer's favorite book on his native land. A grueling description of a little-known aspect of WWII, Warriors describes a group of British Army soldiers charged with preventing bloodshed between feuding tribes at a remote outstation in Somalia. Hanley turns this period of his life, a difficult time that drove seven officers to suicide, into a devastating critique of imperialism.

About the Author:
Gerald Hanley was an Irish catholic writer and broadcaster with an incurable wanderlust. He was married twice, first to a white Kenyan, then to a Kashmiri, and had nine children, but never settled. At the end of an adventurous life he romanced an Irish girl and dreamed of solving his financial problems by writing a massively successful movie script.
Review:
"the foremost writer of his generation" Ernest Hemmingway"
