The book has three parts that deal with the Colonel’s memoire and his views on personalities and events. The book also covers the interviews and reactions of former generals and soldiers, Derg’s regime, the Ethiopian Revolution, the Somali invasion, the war in Eritrea, the failed coup against Mengistu, African dictators, Meles Zenawi and Robert Mugabe.
It is a must-read book and the reader is ushered into an exquisitely detailed and atmospheric past, tracing the Colonel’s journey from its destruction back to its creation.
