The setting is that of a Wilbur Smith novel. After the Italian invasion of Abyssinia in WWII a rag tag colonial arm led by Britain’s most eccentric army officer Orde Wingate fought to restore Emporer Haile Selaissie to the thrown. The camel corps was led by Laurens van der Post. Wilfred Thesiger also fought. The Italians were routed and Wingate riding a white horse led the the Emporer triumphantly back into Addis Ababa.
This is historical fiction at its best from a writer who has prize-winning form; a rich re-imagining of a bizarre WWII campaign that although the stuff of fiction actually really took place.
