5.0 out of 5 stars
An enthralling, if somewhat heavy, study of the Sudanese war, December 4, 1996
By A Customer
This review is from: John Garang Speaks (Paperback)
The political and military situation in Africa's largest contry, Sudan, is not considered news in the West, and sothere is very little readily available information about it. In this book John Garang, Commander in Chief of the National Democratic Alliance, writes about his country, its past and its future. For anyone with an interest in African affairs, social justice or the politics of war, this book - written by a warlord - is highly recommended. The book includes many speeches given by Garang as events unfolded in Sudan, and letters exchanged between the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) and the various other powers in the country over the past decade. Although not really a book for a Saturday afternoon, The Call for Democracy in Sudan is well worth the effort; a score of nine out of ten is well deserved.
