Sobre este artículo
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 rural Rhodesia were led into the modern world. The book will be read and enjoyed both by the student of history and by those who appreciate a good tale well told. The Guardians is amply illustrated with photographs and with line drawings and cartoons by Alex Bundock. ------------------------- 305 pages with index ---------- Orders over $100.00 are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
