As a schoolboy at the age of thirteen, Magnus Malan had already run away to join what was then the Union Defence Force. This was to no avail, of course, but ever since he was permitted to join the Physical Training Battalion in 1946, for a period of some 45 years, his career and life has been closely entwined with the South African Defence Force. Malan's military career took him to many places in Southern Africa: Robben Island, the former South West Africa, where the Territorial Force was charged with protecting the South African Mandate territory, to the Military Academy in Saldanha and the Castle in Cape Town. As Chief of the Army and later Chief of the Defence Force he was closely involved in South Africa's incursion into Angola in 1975 and 1976, and also in many cross-border operations in the years thereafter. Malan then entered politics, and will be particularly remembered as Minister of Defence during the troubled 1980s. Malan offers a brief account of the influence that political developments in Southern Africa since 1960 had on the structures and functions of the South African Defence Force; on the successes of Armscor, and on South Africa's nuclear arms capability. He also provides valuable context for a period of many political and military events; a period of immense importance to the present generation and their descendants, but which has become almost forgotten. The title pays tribute to all those who contributed to the successes of the South African Defence Force and Armscor in a critical era of our history.

Twelve years after fighting against the British during the Anglo-Boer War, Louis Botha went to war on Britains side. As prime minister of the Union of South Africa at the outbreak of the First World War, Botha agreed to lead his country on a campaign against the Germans across the border in South-West Africa. But first he would have to deal with a conflict at home.  Many Afrikaners balked at the prime ministers decision, and so began a war on two fronts. While Union Defence Force troops gathered on the border and prepared to launch an offensive, a handful of Bothas former comrades incited an Afrikaner rebellion intent on keeping South Africa out of the war, or worse, siding with Germany.  Louis Bothas War  is the story of how a former Boer War fighting-general-turned-politician crushed a rebellion, rallied his countrys first united army to fight in harsh conditions and defeated the enemy in the Great Wars first successful Allied campaign. Bothas actions and these events would determine the fate of South-West Africa, and its relationship with its southern neighbour, for the next eighty years.    Paperback, 240 pages.  Release Date: January 2015
