Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

When terrorists loyal to Robert Mugabe's Zimbabwe African National Union win control of the Honde Valley on the eastern border of Rhodesia, the government must decide whether to concede defeat or take a stand. Prime Minister Ian Smith decides to fight back, and he calls upon Jamie Ross, a district commissioner, to relocate 21,000 people into protected villages. To restore the Honde Valley, Ross must first re-establish authority, win over the hearts and minds of the people, and create conditions necessary to re-open the tea estates-a source of vital foreign exchange. Meanwhile, Josiah Makoni, one of Mugabe's most terrifying lieutenants, is winning followers and accumulating power with a series of vicious terrorist acts. As the war escalates, Makoni faces setbacks, and cannot escape the internal conflicts that plague his nights and lead him to question whether life is worth living. Find out whether Jamie and his team can overcome the unbridled fury of the terrorists while learning about the history of Rhodesia from multiple perspectives in Dawn of Deliverance. Learn what has happened to the country of Zimbabwe under one of the most brutal dictators in modern history.
