Marion's story covers four emigrations to Rhodesia and Zimbabwe totalling nineteen years, over four decades. It is a story of experiencing the gradual change from an orderly prosperous country to the country it had become when she finally left in the late 1980s.
Rhodesia was known as the bread basket of Africa where there was work, food, education and opportunity for all.
There was respect for the customs of the indigenous population and an acknowledgement for the need to integrate. They said it was God's own country.
It was also viewed as a rich prize by external forces and a terrorist war was to change everything.
This story attempts to catalogue a life changing experience by the entire population when democracy fails.
