Book and wrapper still a great condition. >>> Fiction based on fact - Guerrilla war wracks Rhodesia and the government needs air power to snuff out the insurgent force. Fifty American helicopters would be perfectly suited to the terrain but because of sanctions the aircraft are not available. But David Swansey, a young Rhodesian businessman, is called upon by his government to procure the helicopters illegally. >>> The story follows two sides of the morally ambiguous guerrilla warfare in 70s Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and never chooses a side. I liked it because it mixes a brisk, action-packed narrative with a contemporary snapshot of Africa's recent colonial past. A film was also made srarring Richard ahsrris as Swansey. (Goodreads)
