WARRIORS FROM ABYEI in The Liberation of South Sudan

Modern day peace and war in South Sudan – the story of five individuals caught up in the conflict between North and South and their different ways of resisting and seeking justice for their people; at times tragic, heroic and gripping, presenting real life and death encounters in Africa and what it means to rebel against a well-armed opposition. This is a solid contribution to the history of the country and especially the people of Abyei who live in close contact with the Arabic North. In the words of the author, “a modest tribute to these outstanding individuals and to war heroes in general, both from the Ngok Dinka of Abyei and their comrades-in-arms in South Sudan and the wider New Sudan without discrimination on the grounds of race, ethnicity, religion and culture.”
