Moses Ihonde, information manager and diplomat, brings to bear, in this work, the lessons of his rich experience in the corridors of power. Deep, revealing and engaging, the book takes the reader through the high wire world of military politics of the 70s. It is a well written story filled with suspense and drama and hitherto unpublished information.
