This book is a pioneering study of Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo, a
Zimbabwean nationalist whose crucial role in the country's
anti-colonial struggle has largely gone unrecognized. These essays
trace his early influence on Zimbabwean nationalism in the late
1950s and his leadership in the armed liberation movement and
postcolonial national-building processes, as well as his
denigration by the winners of the 1980 elections, Mugabe's Zimbabwe
African National Union-Patriotic Front. The Nkomo that emerges is
complex and contested, the embodiment of Zimbabwe's tortured
trajectory from colony to independent postcolonial state. This is
an essential corrective to the standard history of
twentieth-century Zimbabwe, and an invaluable resource for scholars
of African nationalist liberation movements and nation-building.
