(More customer reviews)Peter Petter-Bowyer offers the world a unique airman's story of the Rhodesian Bush War. PB not only established and led the highly successful aerial reconnaissance effort but was not safisfied with it. Blessed with an enquiring, inventive mind, and without any engineering background, he not only improved the aircraft he flew but also invented a new range of weapons for them. He was and is also a well-loved and admired leader of men. He has provided us with an enthralling story.

The author was born in the highly successful self-governingBritish colony, Southern Rhodesia. His love of his country and its people is as clear inthis book as his disbelief and anger over British and South African policies ofpolitical expendiency that forced Rhodesia out of the western camp into one clearlyforseen to become a one-party Marxist dictatorship. Winds ofDestruction is the story of the author's life before and after joining the RoyalRhodesian Air Force. The book centres on the writer's involvement with air and groundoperations in Rhodesia's thirteen-year war against the communist forces of MarxistRobert Mugabe and Joshua Nkomo who sought to gain power by force.
