In this book, the author provides an authentic firsthand story of tumultuous periods in Uganda's history. He narrates firsthand stories of the Amin rule of terror, the 1972 invasion, the 1979 overthrow of the Amin government, the 1985 overthrow of the Obote government, and the collapse of the Okello and Okello regime which ushered in the Museveni rule under NRM. This is a must read for people who want to know how and why Museveni got grass roots support from ordinary people and why the sincerely believed that he had all the answers to Uganda's problems. It also gives us a glimpse of the humble beginnings of those we see now as giants in the current regime. The book tells stories of the author's sacrifice, service, and the tragic unappreciated end of his life.
