Description: Macmillan. London 1992. 184pp illustrated softcover. No inscriptions. VG+ condition. ISBN: 9780333568408 Gerry John Rawlings was a man arousing intense emotions in both opponents and admirers. This is the story of the 1979 and 1981 revolutions led by him, tracing the history of the turbulent years after the 1981 revolution and assessing its triumphs and failures. As Ghana heads towards its Fourth Republic it asks how real is the vaunted economic recovery to the ordinary Ghanaian, and analyses the revolution's attempts to evolve a 'true democracy' with Ghana once more leading Africa into a new era of freedom and justice.
