Description
No marks or inscriptions. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased. 172pp. An account of the depraved regime of Idi Amin in Uganda in the late 1970s where murder, torture, imprisonment and mutilation were standard methods used on anyone he wanted to by Amin who had been humiliated by the Israeli's Entebbe Raid. The story is told by Wycliffe Kato who had been Assistant Director General of Civil Aviation at the time of his arrest and imprisonment. He tells of his time in custody and how he managed to escape to Nairobi. Very scarce.
