This book details the life of James R 'Hamish' Peters, a third generation Rhodesian, and seventh generation African. He grew up in Rhodesia and saw the best of the country growing up as a boy and later during his service with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You will explore his adventures as a young boy, a teenager, a district commissioner, an honorary officer of the Game Department, an avid conservationist, and a fisherman. As a district commissioner his role changed from administration to one of 'winning the hearts and minds of the people' during the bush war years. That was when he was named #1 on the hit list of Robert Mugabe, head of the Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU), when Hamish led the war efforts in the war-torn Honde Valley. Follow the lives of Hamish Peters, and his wife, Sallie, as they raise a family, move from the center of the country to the west, to the south, to the west again, to the eastern districts and finally to the capital, Salisbury. See Rhodesia through their eyes and join them in the joys and challenges they faced. See also how faith in God influenced their lives in so many ways.
