Description

A description of the conflicts which have so damaged Africa, this survey of the last four decades seeks to throw light on the problems which afflict the continent. All important conflicts are covered, North, Central and South, with their political and military background, and details of armies and weaponry. Africa, in the post colonial era, has been battered by rebellion amongst its dictators, self-promoters, tribal factions and down-trodden poor. The coverage of this study is pan-African, providing a broad picture of the continent as it approaches a new century. The book is designed to be suitable as background reading to African Studies courses.
