A Complicated War : The Harrowing of
Mozambique
(amazon.com) - USA (amazon.co.uk)- Europe
by William Finnegan
Anyone
who wants to know about Mozambique's recent history must read this book--not
just because it's full of names, facts and dates, but because it's a stunning
work of exploration and exposure by a journalist who chose to travel through a
viciously dangerous countryside to try to understand the reality of a nation
devastated by fear. (A reader , August 6, 1997)

Malyn
Newitt's "A History of Mozambique," is not for the faint of heart given its
detail laden pages covering some 450 years of Mozambican history. Nevertheless,
the reader is well rewarded with a deeper understanding of the factors and
events that have helped shape one of Africa's poorest and long-suffering
nations. (A reader , July 23, 1997)

Migrant Laborers in Mozambique and South Africa, C.1860-1910
(amazon.com) - USA (amazon.co.uk)- Europe
by Patrick Harries
Harries
(history, U. of Cape Town) discusses how a dynamic new culture emerged as
Mozambican workers carried their native values, signs, and rituals of authority
with them to South Africa to work in the sugar plantations, diamond fields, and
gold mines, and encountered other blacks, Europeans, and colonists. He focuses
on the causes and consequences of migrant labor, the social history of the
migrants, and their changing relations with employers and the state.

(amazon.com) - USA (amazon.co.uk)- Europe
by Pascoe Grenfell Hill
Rev. Pascoe G. Hill has left us a chilling testament. Fifty Days on Board a
Slave - Vessel is his unforgettable account of life on a slave ship. Hill's
narrative locks fifty days into an existence of forever that haunts, not from
the fear of the unknown, but the fear of the known. At a relatively safe
distance of more than a hundred years away from Hill's time we know, as he did,
the extended suffering of the enslaved Africans.
