4.0 out of 5 stars 'So far and no further', December 11, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Battle for Rhodesia (Hardcover)
"Battle for Rhodesia" was Douglas Reed's political prediction for southern Africa. Written in 1967 this book provides political arguments favoring Rhodesia and its fight against encroaching communist insurgencies. Reed argued that escalating tensions in southern Africa signaled the beginnings of another world war.

Although Reed missed with his major predicition, he was startingly correct with most others. Historians will enjoy this book for its unadulterated and timely views. Reed's conversational tone and passion for Rhodesia make some of his theories cumbersome but overall his analysis is intelligently clear. It's interesting to speculate what would've happened if the West had listened to Reed's arguments. I recommend this book to readers interested in learning about the political dilemmas that faced post UDI Rhodesia in the late 1960s.
