As a trained nurse, newly married to the son of the Governor of
Rhodesia during the UDI years, Susan writes compellingly about
bringing up a family on their farm in Matabeleland in the midst of
the unfolding terror and growing number of atrocities. Above all it
is a human story. Sometimes shocking and always moving, there is
also warmth and humour as Susan creates a gripping picture of the
conflict and tells of her family's survival when many of her
friends and neighbouring farmers didn't. The book is a testament to
the courage displayed by so many people who were tested day after
day by almost unimaginable horrors. The Litany Bird is the popular
name of the Nightjar, a largely nocturnal bird found throughout
southern Africa. Its haunting call sounds like 'Good Lord, Deliver
Us.'
