Mukiwa
: A White Boy in Africa
by Peter Godwin
Peter Godwin grew up in Rhodesia during the end of white rule. While
his Rhodesians Never Die is a historical account of that time, Mukiwa
is a more personal narrative--a testament to Africa and a memoir as seen
through the eyes of a child becoming a young man amidst civil war. Spanning
1964-1982, from when Godwin was a boy of six in Rhodesia to when he returned
to Zimbabwe as a journalist covering the bloody transition back to black
rule, Godwin personalizes a difficult era in South African history with
clarity, intelligence, humor, empathy, and sharp prose. Amazon.com

Voices
from the Rocks: Nature, Culture & History in the Matopos Hills of Zimbabwe
by Terence Ranger
Occupied by humanity for some 40,000 years, the Matopos Hills in Zimbabwe
have become the scene of symbolic, ideological and armed conflict over
the last hundred years. Voices from the Rocks is about landscape, religion,
conservation, political symbolism, and war in the Matopos Hills - not simply
the geography of the National Park there, which is seen by most visitors
as a "wild place." This book reinstates culture and history into nature.

Winds
of Destruction
by P. J. H Petter-Bowyer
Book Description
The author was born in the highly successful self-governing British
colony, Southern Rhodesia. His love of his country and its people is as
clear in this book as his disbelief and anger over British and South African
policies of political expendiency that forced Rhodesia out of the western
camp into one clearly forseen to become a one-party Marxist dictatorship.
Winds of Destruction is the story of the author's life before and after
joining the Royal Rhodesian Air Force. The book centres on the writer's
involvement with air and ground operations in Rhodesia's thirteen year
war against the communist forces of Marxist Robert Mugabe and Joshua Nkomo
who sought to gain power by force.

The
Zimbabwe Culture : Origins and Decline of Southern Zambezian States
by Innocent Pikirayi, Joseph O. Vogel
Offering a unique and original perspective on the rise and fall of
indigenous states of southern Zambezia, "The Zimbabwe Culture" analyzes
the long contentious history of the remains of the remarkable cyclopean
masonry, ranging from mighty capitals of traditional kings to humble farmsteads.
Forming a cornerstone of the geographical lore of Africa in the seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries, debate on the origins, development, and collapse
of the Zimbabwe culture has never ceased, and with increasing archaeological
research over the twentieth century, has become more complex. Thoroughly
examining the growth and decline of pre-colonial states on the entire Zimbabwean
Plateau and southern Zambezia, Dr. Pikirayi has contributed tremendously
towards the archaeological understanding of this extraordinary culture.
"The Zimbabwe Culture" is essential reading for all students and avocationalists
of African archaeology, history, and culture.
