Before Frederick Forsyth became a bestselling novellist he was an experienced and much respected Reuters and BBC correspondent, noted for the research, accuracy and courage of his reports. In this shocking indictment of the Nigerian civil war, Forsyth has taken an unashamedly Biafran point of view. He traces the origins of the war to its roots in tribal antagonisms and British colonial policy. The concentrated assault on Biafra was one of the biggest bloodbaths in Africa's history. First published in 1969 as 'The Biafra Story', the book has been extensively revised for this edition." Click here for full details of this book, to ask a question or to buy it on-line.
