Description

This historical account examines the pivotal Lancaster House Conference of 1979 that transformed Rhodesia's political landscape and led to the creation of Zimbabwe. Published by Routledge, the book provides an insider's perspective on negotiations that ended years of conflict and brought majority rule to southern Africa. The author, a career Foreign Service officer with direct experience in southern African affairs during the 1970s, offers firsthand observations of the diplomatic efforts that forged a remarkable agreement between competing factions. The work explores how Rhodesia moved from Ian Smith's 1965 Unilateral Declaration of Independence to a negotiated settlement within just fourteen years, documenting the key players, strategies, and international pressures that shaped this watershed moment in African history. Essential reading for scholars, historians, and anyone seeking to understand the complex path to Zimbabwe's independence and the broader implications for southern Africa's political transformation.
