Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. 394 pages, very good condition, no markings, dj very good condition also, first edition. War Diaries is the contemporaneous record of the late Major Andre Dennison's service as OC A Company 2nd Battalion Rhodesian African Rifles (RAR) from its formation on 1 October 1975 to his untimely death in June 1979 by friendly fire at the hands of a BSAP constable during a contact at the Zimbabwe Ruins Hotel. Dennison was a career British officer who, having completed his 22 years in the British Army including action at Suez, in Malaya, and Borneo and Northern Ireland with the SAS, signed on with the Rhodesian Army in 1975. Having commanded indigenous troops in Malaya he was a natural choice to command the black soldiers of the RAR. It is a day by day account of combat and contact in the harsh and savage environment of the Bush War with the insurgent terrorists of ZANLA/ZIPRA. As a war diary and not a personal diary it is largely devoid of sentiment and largely matter of fact though for a man who was clearly a tough soldier there are moments where tragedy is hinted at such as his description of the death in action of one of his favorite subalterns 2/LT Bruce Thompson - Dennison writes simply ' there was no finer soldier in the Rhodesian Army, so that means any army'. One can imagine that losses like this affected Dennison more deeply than the matter of fact style of the narrative would suggest but then this is a unit diary, intended to be read by others and not for private reflection - one can imagine that this if it came was recorded elsewhere.

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. pp: 394. FIRST EDITION. Green pictorial dust jacket, dark green cloth covered boards. The diaries, which make up the largest part of the book, are a meticulously kept record of the author's five years of service in the Rhodesian war, serving with the 2nd Bn of Rhodesian African Rifles. According to his diary, Dennison was deployed in Rhodesia twenty-five times. He was a former SAS member, and saw action in several hot spots, including Northern Ireland. It was probably difficult for a black soldier in such a place. In a way, it's a shame his diary didn't start with his recruitment into the SAS. The book is illustrated with many photographs, and maps. N° de réf. du vendeur 007255

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. 400pp, 142 photographs.Near Fine in Near Fine DJ. No Markings. The War Diaries of Andre Dennison recount the activities of Selous Scouts 'A' Company of 2RAR during the bush war in Rhodesia, in the form of the diaries kept by its OC in the period 1976 to 1979. The diaries were brought to the attention of Dr. Wood during his research for a history of Rhodesia. When the Rhodesian Army recruited André Dennison in 1975, it could not have chosen better. It secured the services of a hardened veteran of four of the minor wars of the 1950s and 1960s - the Suez débâcle; the Cyrpus Emergency; the confrontation with Indonesia as well as events as we have seen them in Northern Ireland. Dennison had been a paratrooper, a member of the SAS, a company commander and a training officer. He had served with the Malawi Rifles and had gained experience with African troops. Thus he was the most appropriate choice asd the first Officer Commanding f 'A' Company of the new 2nd Battalion of the Rhodesian African Rifles. André Dennison quickly acquired the reputation of being one of the most forceful of the Fire Force commanders. He kept a meticulous record of the daily life of his 'A' Company, writing up his war diaries every night and eventually, when convalescing from wounds, transcribing them into a single volume. He wrote in the dry, humourous style of the professional soldier, sparing little pity for his enemy while displaying deep affection and admiration for his men as he chronicled their exploits. He was diffident about his own achievements which were to win him three awards for bravery. André Dennison affords the reader a unique insight into the life of a black infantry company in the traumatic last five years of the long insurgency war in Rhodesia. Dennison's text is enriched by contributions from the records of the Selous Scouts supplied by Lieutenant-Colonel Ron Reid-Daly. Accordingly, when Dennison writes of being called out by the Scouts to a sighting, Reid-Daly reveals the background to the incident and, in many instances, adds to the outcome. Ron Reid-Daly also provides a review of the use of Fire Force, that potent combination of helicopters, paratroops and infantry. There was no diary entry recording Major André Dennison's death in action in June 1979. It was the end of the diary. N° de réf. du vendeur 001160
