books on the Rhodesian conflict

[texaxile]

Hi,
I have an interest in historical conflicts such as this, I've got a chunk of literature on the Dhofar confflict (an interest started during my dad's tenure in Oman in the 70's) where I met a couple of Rhodesians socially. To begin with, I'd like suggestions for initially an impartial and factual source on why it began and how it developed, and also any "boots on the ground" sources of information or accounts.

I have a copy of "The great betrayal" and am half way through. I've yet to read "Dingo Firestorm" on my Kindle.

I'd also like to research further the Rhodesian Rifles, so any worthwhile suggestions would be appreciated.

Virtual covid free pints all round.

cheers.

Thanks for the replies Gents, most helpful, and Levin I did mean the RAR, sorry. I recall meeting a gent many years ago who had served with them, he had a few interesting stories on his time there, so I'll keep on searching for sources.

I've ordered a copy of "Bush War Operator" for my Kindle, along with a free copy of "Sitting Target" which should keep me out of trouble, as well as getting Rods book that you linked for me Haddock82 , thanks for that bud!.

cheers chaps

Many thanks for the suggestion. I can't seem to find it anywhere though!. There's a copy of "Pamwe Chete" on Ebay for £125 plus £30 P&P, little bit beyond my budget though!.
