Behind NPFL and RUF Rebel Lines

Some of these experiences were so traumatic that I felt obliged to pen them for the world. I also contribute to the debate about the war in Sierra Leone, which has become an issue for international jurisdiction. This book provides an historical account of the Liberian conflict and an eyewitness account of the initial stage of the RUF rebel war. I also provide background for the ascendancy to power of Africa’s first elected female president, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, and her reign from 2006 to 2013.
