Warriors - Life and Death Among the Somalis (Paperback, New edition)

This superb portrait of one of the world's most desolate, sun-scorched lands, inhabited by fiercely independent tribesmen, is Rageh Omer's favorite book on his native land. A grueling description of a little-known aspect of WWII. Warriors describes a group of British Army soldiers charged with preventing bloodshed between feuding tribes at a remote outstation in Somalia. Hanley turns this period of his life, difficult time that drove seven officers to suicide, into a devastating critique of imperialism.
