Summary

Challenges the understanding of the war that has turned Mozambique - a naturally rich country - into one of the world's poorest nations. This book combines frontline reporting, personal narrative, political analysis, and scholarship to present a picture of a Mozambique harrowed by local conflicts - ethnic, religious, political and personal.
