    Default A new book in 2021

    Thanks to Jon Custis for spotting that Charles Melson has written 'Fighting for Time: Rhodesia's Military and Zimbabwe’s Independence', which has been published in the UK and USA by Casemate Publishers. It has to date on rating and one very short review.

    Links to Amazon sites (there are other publishers): https://www.amazon.com/Fighting-Time...4999730&sr=1-1 and https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fighting-Ti...s=books&sr=1-1

    The author's bio:
    Charles D. “Chuck” Melson served as the Chief Historian for the U.S. Marine Corps, at Headquarters, U.S. Marine Corps in Washington, DC, and the Marine Corps University in Quantico, Virginia. His military service included 25 years as a U.S. Marine. For some 23 years he wrote, co-authored, or edited official publications and series. Chuck was also a joint historian with the U.S. Central Command and U.S. Special Operations Command. He received the General Edwin Simmons-Henry Shaw Award for public historians, the General Leonard Chapman Medal for professional military educators, and the commemorative Rhodesian Independence Medal.
    Parts of the book can be found on Google Books: https://books.google.bs/books?id=iv0...6AEwCHoECAsQAg
