1924-

Examines the childhood, education, employment, and political career of the forty-first president.

Robert Mugabe, Prime Minister of Zimbabwe, has continued to show himself as intolerant to any other form of government and continues to lead his country as a one-party state. Opposition is not tolerated and he continues to amass a fortune for his family and followers and presides over the murder and starvation of those who oppose him.

Long ago Robert Mugabe was a Freedom Fighter. Over the past thirty years he has become Zimbabwe's president and rules as a dictator.

Explains the distinctive place of Kalenjin nationalism in Kenyan politics as well as the role of ethnicity in Africa and traces the work of indigenous intellectuals and independence-era political leaders in shaping a larger sense of collective kinship among people sharing a broadly similar language and culture.

At the printing of this book, George Bush, forty-first president of the United States, does not plan to write his autobiography, so this collection of letters, diaries, and memos with his accompanying commentary must suffice. Organized chronologically, the book begins with eighteen-year-old George's letters to his parents during World War II.

Each day during his presidency, Jimmy Carter, the thirty-ninth president of the United States, made several entries in a private diary and recorded his thoughts, impressions, delights, and frustrations. When his four-year term ended in 1981, the diary had more than five thousand pages. It has never been made public until now.

Describes Robert Mugabe's rise to power in Zimbabwe's first elections as an independent nation, how his economic policies have contributed to the country's ruin, and what life is like in Zimbabwe under his rule.
