This is the follow-up to the very successful Contact, although
the new book, Contact II, can also stand in its own right as a
chronicle of the Rhodesian war. The second volume is not intended
to be a blow- by- blow account of the war nor a detailed analysis
of each unit of the Security Forces. It is instead a pictorial
overview of what the war has meant to all in the recently-named
Zimbabwe.
Together the two volumes constitute the most comprehensive
record of the fighting forces of Rhodesia. They are poignant symbols
of the country's brave and noble heritage. Yet in certain respects
the tone of the sequel differs from its predecessor. This is fitting
for times have changed. Yesterday is literally another country
and the uncertain tomorrow beckons to this war-weary land. Yet
whatever the future does hold for this beautiful but hurt country
readers can still pick up this book and proudly recall Rhodesia's
struggle for peace.
Book is USED. In Good condition.
