Book Description
Zimbabwe 1980. The war is over, but ancient conflicts between the two main tribes - Robert Mugabe's Shona in the north and Joshua Nkomo's Matabele in the south - are still simmering. Soon, they will spill over into a civil war where blacks will fight blacks, and white families caught in the crossfire will die. Twin brothers, Greg and Clay Buckley, are locked in a war of their own to win the love of their childhood friend, Tara Flynn. Their sibling rivalry ends in a vicious fight that will have a devastating impact on their lives and the lives of everyone around them. Mugabe's North Korean trained armies are poised to carry out the systematic destruction of the Matabele nation. The Buckleys' farm stands in their way. Already weakened by the rift between the brothers, there is little left to protect the land and its people from the advancing hordes. The blood of black and white Africans is about to stain the rich red earth of Zimbabwe once more. And things will never be the same again.

Equiano, the African
Author: Vincent Carretta
Publisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 0820362972
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 463
Book Description
This definitive biography tells the story of the former slave Olaudah Equiano (1745?–1797), who in his day was the English-speaking world’s most renowned person of African descent. Equiano’s greatest legacy is his classic 1789 autobiography, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, or Gustavus Vassa, the African, Written by Himself. A key document of the early movement to ban the slave trade, as well as the fundamental text in the genre of the African American slave narrative, it includes the earliest known purported firsthand description by an enslaved victim of the horrific Middle Passage from Africa to the Americas. Equiano, the African is filled with fresh revelations about this many-sided figure.
