Fri frakt för medlemmar vid köp för minst 249 kr.FIRST-HAND POLITICAL REPORTING FROM ENVELOPEBOOKSMichael Holman's eye-witness reports on Eastern and Southern Africa for the Financial Times and other media provide rare insights into the region's post-independence successes and setbacks.From his accounts of atrocities by Rhodesian forces in the 1960s to his interviews with those who aspired to lead Africa into its own future and assessments of how they actually performed, Holman brings together a lifetime of commentary on a continent he grew up in, knows acutely and loves dearly.Written with the benefit of exceptional access, Holman's writings still hold out hope for Africa, in spite of decades of disappointment at the structural mismanagement of the nations themselves, the flawed policies of donor countries and funders, and the hateful legacy of imperialism.Essential reading for anyone wanting an introduction to the first half-century of Africa's post-colonial history.
