Description:In 1962, at the age of 17, David Young signed up to the Rhodesian British South Africa Police. It was the start of twenty years of sometimes depressing, horrifying, sad and frightening, but frequently funny and always interesting experiences as a police officer.Occupying a range of posts, both rural and urban, and investigating crimes from minor traffic offences to murder – and eventually becoming involved in the country’s “Second Chimurenga”, the bush war that led to Zimbabwe’s independence in the late 1970s, and the aftermath of that revolution – David learned hard life lessons while climbing the ranks.In this memoir of his two decades in what he proudly calls “one of the finest police forces this world has ever known”, David vividly recalls the events of that unique period in Southern Africa’s the happiness and the heartbreak, the achievements and the disappointments, and the good people, and the mad and the bad. It’s an affectionate but clear-eyed look back at a country and a time that no longer exist.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
