QUICK OVERVIEW
Though life "on the border" was often deeply upsetting, much of it was plain boring or humdrum, even pleasant - and occasionally hilarious. For those who were there, it was an unforgettable time with after-effects ranging from bitterness to fond nostalgia, often a mix of both. With his new title, author, broadcaster and journalist David Williams captures an era that defined the life experience of white men who are now between 35 and 60.
AFRIKAANS OVERVIEW
Op die Grens, 1965-1990: Wit Mans se Militere Ervaring by David Williams is an Afrikaans text describing the Border Wars in Angola and South Africa's subsequent involvement.
Bedrewe joernalis David Williams vang 'n era vas en beskryf die grenservarings wat wit mans van tussen 35 en 60 ten diepste beinvloed het. Troepies en hul gesinne sal hulself in die titel herken. Onderhoude met voetsoldate en weermagleiers soos Jannie Geldenhuys, Constand Viljoen en George Meiring word aangevul met 'n historiese konteks en oorsig. Die gevolg is 'n titel wat 'n vars ek-was-self-daar inslag kombineer met diepgang en analise.
