Southern Africa Editorial Review
Counter-Strike From the Sky: The Rhodesian All-Arms Fireforce in the War in the Bush 1974–1980 Hardcover is a compelling read for anyone interested in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe's history, modern warfare, and/or counter-insurgency operational planning, behaviour, tactics, and results. The book explains the evolution, equipment, and doctrine of a Fireforce, as well as an in-depth look at Operation Dingo. It covers a very niche subject, meaning readers have to be interested in the topic to stick with it. The book is primarily written for an academic/military audience and has a dry style, making it plodding and challenging to read for some. The biography covers a very specific aspect, and the author gives the Rhodesian Light Infantry much coverage at the expense of discussion of the RAR and RSAS, who also used the tactic. However, those who are interested in learning can appreciate the nitty-gritty will find this book informative.
