ABOUT THE AUTHOR:John Frame was born in Salisbury, Rhodesia (Harare, Zimbabwe). The early years were spent in the peaceful pre-bush war era of Southern Rhodesia.He became acutely aware of the political turmoil facing his country when his father became involved with the Rhodesian Front party; which held Government from 1963 through to the late 1980s.After high school, John went to South Africa to attend Rhodes University where he succeeded in gaining an Honours Degree in Commerce. He became aware of the seriousness of the bush war from observing how his sister and their family took anti-terrorist protective measures on their farm. This was reinforced when working with Price Waterhouse during the long University breaks he often found himself carrying an automatic weapon as well as the more mundane stationary and papers in order to safely attend the more remote auditing locations.Unwilling to sit on the sideline while his friends and family were increasingly embroiled in the conflict, John entered the Rhodesian Air Force, assigned to Airforce HQ, where he gained valuable insight into the conflict.Surviving the war and after qualifying as a Chartered Accountant, he left Zimbabwe and resettled in Australia. |
