Modern African Wars (2) Angola & Mocambique 1961-74

Portugal is a small country, but for many years it possessed the world's third largest empire; and its armed forces deserve to be better known than they are in the English-speaking world. Fortunately, the British co-author was able to meet a Portuguese colleague who was not only an authority on Portuguese military history and uniforms, but who had also served in Mocambique himself. A collaborative venture seemed the best way of providing the kind of 'hard' information about Portuguese weapons, organisation, uniforms and insignia that has been lacking until now.Abbott, Peter is the author of 'Modern African Wars (2) Angola & Mocambique 1961-74', published 0010 under ISBN 9780850458435 and ISBN 0850458439.
