The White Tribe

(1991)
A novel by

 
 
Library Journal
It's 1976 and the Crippled Eagles, former Green Berets, are fighting as mercenaries in the Rhodesian army. The enemy is the Patriotic Front led by Robert Mugabe and Joshua Nkomo. Roger Masefield, an American author, goes to Rhodesia to tell the story of these Americans and the Rhodesian war, but instead is used as a cover for agents working to overthrow Ian Smith's government. Their goal is to put the Patriotic Front in power. Moore, author of The Green Berets (Ballantine, 1985. pap.), has written a fast-moving story of guerrilla warfare, deceit, and the betrayal of the Rhodesian government by its supposed friends. The parallels to South Africa today are frightening. Recommended.-- Karen Stewart, Colorado Leg islative Council Lib., Denver
