In 2008, memoirist and journalist Peter Godwin secretly returned to his native Zimbabwe after its notoriously tyrannical leader, Robert Mugabe, lost an election.

Told with a brilliant... In 2008, memoirist and journalist Peter Godwin secretly returned to his native Zimbabwe after its notoriously tyrannical leader, Robert Mugabe, lost a...

Rhodesians Never Die
ISBN: 9780908311828 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 420 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.)

This is a lively and accessible account,...
