Good read about 1970's mercenaries and problems.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I enjoyed this book about an ill-fated mercenary operation in Angola in the 1970's. As describes a pretty chaotic and brutal situation, this is not a read for the faint of heart as war crimes against humanity are described. This book was a great counter point to the 1970's era when Soldier of Fortune glamorized of mercenaries. The book describes a situation completely opposite of the now corporate "private security contractor" mercenary situation as found in many parts of the world. I also enjoyed the beginning section of the book describing cross-border, overland trucking in pre-EU, Cold War era Europe in which the author was employed.
