About: Rhodesian soldier and others who fought

Rhodesian soldier and others who fought is very much a soldier's book with intimate, close photographs accompanied by verses and poems of barracks and active life. Author Chas Lotter was born in Germiston, South Africa, but lived in Rhodesia from childhood until the Mugabe takeover. For nine years he served in the Territorial Army, latterly as a sergeant and a field medic. During his time as a soldier he saw considerable active service against infiltrating terrorists in various operational areas of Rhodesia. His soldiers' verse has been widely published in southern Africa, the United States of America and Europe, where he has been acclaimed as a modern day Rudyard Kipling. Rhodesian Soldier and Others Who Fought is his first book.
