This book covers the civil war of Congo, a long period from the mid-nineties to mid-oughts. It portrays the people participating, the forces and the geopolitical games between nations. It also gives a voice to the people itself.
Here, I try to write down some thoughts regarding history and share things and thoughts that I think are interesting from a historical perspective.
This book systematically cuts through all the bravado and battlefield-centric focus of World War 2 history and focuses on the things that mattered Manufacturing, logistics, and control over the air-sea theatre. It also provides insight into how the leaders of both the Axis powers as well as the Allies thought and how they argued against themselves, for better or worse.
