AUSTIN WORDS-WORTHY) This compelling and critically acclaimed book (Volume 1 of A 3 Volume Set) delves into the intersection of governance, leadership, and military systems in an otherwise vibrant, multi-ethnic society. The book offers a historical understanding and some autobiographical context for the unique challenges faced by many developing counties trying to chart a new path as democratic societies, while being put-upon and actively held hostage by the vestiges of repackaged colonialism; some defunct, yet obdurate local traditions that should have long-ago been cast into the sea of obsolescence; and a succession of ambitious military officers and aspiring dictators with delusions of grandeur. This is A RARE AUTOGRAPHED COPY and a perfect addition to any collection for history enthusiasts, socio-political scholars, students, educators, collectors, and curious minds.
