A Far-Away War contributes to a wider understanding of this war in Angola and Namibia. The book does not only look at the war from an 'old' South African (Defence Force) perspective, but also gives a voice to participants 'on the other side' -- emphasising the role of the Cubans and Russians. This focus is supplemented by the inclusion of many never-before-published photographs from Cuban and Russian archives, and a comprehensive bibliography.AngolaHistorySouth African Incursions, 1978-1990AngolaHistorySouth African Invasion, 1975-1976South AfricaHistory, Military1961-Electronic books.967.3041Liebenberg IanLópez Blanch HedelbertoRisquet JorgeVan der Westhuizen GertShubin G.
