| Summary: | Originally published in 1975, this book examines the achievements of, and problems encountered by, African military regimes in office. It begins with 2 chapters discussing trends in the formation and organization of African armies and the influence on these armies of the colonial legacy. The author then studies 6 case histories in detail. His findings show that, though there are certain typical commonalities, each regime has its own particular characteristics. This will be of interest to students of African, military and colonial studies. |
