A story of surviving the Zimbabwe Bush War. First-hand authors are two-a-penny, but not many have lived through a guerilla war, and fewer still have the ability to tell their story in a convincing, narrative way, weaving a balance between the drama Gibbs was a part of and the everyday life of running a farm.
Synopsis
A compelling personal account of living through the atrocities as Rhodesia became Zimbabwe, whilst bringing up a family on a farm amidst the chaos.
