Description

A study in the decline of national idealism, this book tells of the current period of Zimbabwe's history, from decolonization and the civil war in Rhodesia to the murder of white farmers prior to the 2002 national election. Much of the story focuses on the life of one man Robert Mugabe who came to power in 1980, led the country through a long period of economic and social development, and became increasingly autocratic and corrupt in the process.
