Description:
Cape Town: Zebra Press (Struik Publishers), 2006 A fine copy in the original thin card pictorial wrappers as issued. From the back cover: As an independent newspaper editor, courageously exposing the truth, Geoffrey Nyarota was on a collision course with the Zimbabwean government and would become Robert Mugabe's public enemy number one. The newspapers he edited during his career - the Chronicle, the Financial Gazette and the Daily News - were often the lone voice of dissent against a government that had betrayed its people. They chronicled the decline of the country under the Mugabe regime, and how the freedom achieved in the war of liberation was replaced by wholesale government corruption and oppression. As government stepped up the campaign against a free press, Nyarota was subjected to extreme harassment, facing intimidation, arrest, the bombing of his printing press - and a contract on his life. Against the Grain records Nyarota's early life as a schoolteacher caught in the crossfire of a…

Description:
Cape Town and Pretoria: H.A.U.M - J.H. De Bussy, 1954 From the dustjacket flap: Rhodesia is still a young country. Some of the Pioneers who have personally experienced and taken part in the opening up of Rhodesia are still alive today. Many tales about this period are in circulation today; tales that rest partly upon fiction and partly on fact. It is a pity that with the passing of each pioneer the chance of ascertaining the truth of or amplifying the tales becomes more remote or falls away. It is for this reason that Basil Fuller sought personal contact with these "Old timers" on his travels through Rhodesia and persuaded them to talk about their own experiences. In the 15 Chapters of this book the author relates many adventures which were personally experienced by these pioneers and are therefore resting on fact. "Bid Time Return" therefore renders a piece of living history of Rhodesia. --------------------------- 244 pages with b/w photographs and index ---------- Orders of…

Description:
Rhodesia: Books of Zimbabwe, 1981 During the seventy-five years 1903-1978 the Rhodesian tobacco industry was instrumental in bringing to that country significant amounts of capital in the form of cash and skilled manpower. The wealth it generated contributed considerably to the impressive development manifest in its principal city and in the prosperous smaller centres which serve it - Hartley, Marandellas, Sinoia and Rusape to name but a few. It attracted men of initiative. It encouraged research in the field of tropical agriculture which has embraced every aspect of the care as well as the exploitation of the country's natural resources. This book covers every facet of tobacco production: seedbed preparation; soil types and their fertilization; land preparation and layout; plant density and planting methods; reaping, curing and grading, and pest and disease control. There is a short chapter on varieties and their development beginning with South's early endeavours and ending with the Kutsaga…

Description:
Bulawayo: Books of Rhodesia, 1974 The Guardians is an absorbing history of the Southern Rhodesian Native Department, its serving members and their wives. The Department, backbone of the administration during Rhodesia's infancy and youth, was charged with the herculean task of reconciling, as painlessly as possible, two very different racial cultures.That it managed to do this so successfully is a tribute to the courage and enterprise of those dedicated men and women who spent the best years of their lives in government service on isolated outstations. Through narrative, anecdote and perceptive comment, Joy Maclean illuminates their trials, their joys and accomplishments and, in doing so, expresses that tribute in the clearest terms. Essentially, The Guardians is a story about people, their work, their adventures and their families. But it is also a careful analysis - of a great organisation's birth, sturdy growth and final, sad demise, and of the impressive way in which the African people of…
