This book discusses the Anyanya Movement as seen through the eyes of a common soldier. An o shoot of the Torit Mutiny of 1955, the Anyanya Movement waged a protracted guerilla war against the Sudanese state from 1963 up to the signing of the Addis Ababa Agreement in 1972. The author takes the reader through a journey into Sudanese history by focusing on events that led to the birth of the Anyanya. Notably, he focuses on the shortchanging of the aspirations of Southern Sudanese by the Northern Sudanese political establishment. The redivision of Southern Sudan into three regions, the imposition of Islamic Sharia Law, and the abrogation of the Addis Ababa Agreement are some of the issues he sheds light on. Francis Barson Yousa, who served in the Anyanya as a corporal and adjutant to a commander, offers an unparalleled window into the life of an ordinary soldier in the frontlines in a book that is the ¿ first of its kind on the Anyanya. He details his participation in military operations and role in the clerical section of the guerrilla camp of Su'bi in present-day Central Equatoria State in South Sudan. Mr. Yousa, who narrowly escaped death in Juba when he sneaked into the town in the late 1960s, was able to complete his studies and graduated from the University of Khartoum with distinction in 1976. He subsequently held senior roles in the private sector and as a minister in the government of the Central Equatoria State.
