Synopsis
The Cold War exploded in Zanzibar in 1964 when African rebels slaughtered one of every ten Arabs. Led by a strange, messianic Ugandan, Cuban-trained factions headed the rebels, making Zanzibar (in the eyes of Washington) a potentially cancerous base for the communist subversion of mainland Africa. Exotic Zanzibar - fabled island of spices, former slave-trading entrepôt, and stepping-off point for 19th century expeditions into the vast interior of the Dark Continent - had succumbed to the terror of 20th century revolution and Cold War intrigue.In the vivid, eyewitness tradition of The Bang Bang Club and The Skull beneath the Skin , Donald Petterson weaves an engrossing tale of human drama played out against a background of violence and horror. As the only American in Zanzibar throughout the revolution, Petterson reports with the inside authority of a highly placed diplomatic observer, illuminating how the current troubles in Zanzibar are rooted in the Cold War and the revolution of 1964., A gripping eyewitness account of the 1964 Zanzibar revolution as told by the only American present throughout the turmoil, The Cold War exploded in Zanzibar in 1964 when African rebels slaughtered one of every ten Arabs.

    HHbooks is a fantastic seller! The blu-ray I bought was described clearly and was carefully packaged and delivered very quickly. I understandably would’ve expected some time for the package to arrive, but I was both surprised and happy that it didn’t take long at all. On top of the blu-ray being very affordable, this was an excellent deal in comparison to other sellers with the same item. I would absolutely recommend buying from HHbooks, they’re fantastic. Thank you very much!
