Stained Earth




Derek Huggins

War spares nobody and often it is those caught in the crossfire who suffer most. The war of liberation in Rhodesia was protracted and bloody; many still live with its memories. This powerful collection of stories is narrated by a policeman, Greg Stanyon. The clarity of his observations is fused with the pity and pain of this conflict. Both give rise to constant doubt about the war’s necessity and reflect on the toll it takes.
