| "A brilliant story that thrills and inspires you." |
James R. Peters - Author
Dawn of Deliverance
The story is powerful, fast paced and inspired by the experiences of the author.
You will live the challenges of the war, empathize with Jamie's wife while he is in
the forefront of the battle. You will learn why winning the hearts and minds of the
people is so important. Your heart will pound, you will cry as you read about the
terrorist atrocities, you will sigh with relief and the ending will inspire you.
Terrorists of Robert Mugabe’s Zimbabwe African National Union have seized
control of the Honde Valley, and the Prime Minister is in a quandary. The war is
escalating on three fronts and the situation in the Honde Valley has deteriorated.
Is it possible to make one last-ditch effort to regain the Honde; or should he
simply rewrite the borders and concede the Honde to Mugabe?
In James R. Peters' new book Dawn of Deliverance, (published by iUniverse) we
learn the story of Jamie Ross, a District Commissioner, who accepts an
assignment to win back the Honde. Jamie sets out a strategy to win the hearts
and minds of the people by relocating them into seven protected villages.
Meantime terrorist leader Josiah Makoni is taken from his village, indoctrinated
as a Marxist guerilla, and then orchestrates brutal attacks against tribal leaders,
white farmers and finally the massacre of 12 missionaries at Elim Mission
School. With the occupation of the first of the protected villages Josiah realizes
that to retain control of the Honde and its vital access routes he must first kill
Jamie Ross and destroy his spirit. But, God apparently has another plan.

"Peters doesn't
whitewash the war in
Rhodesia, and his writing
is fast paced and crisp.
But in the end, his
purpose is clear - unity
and compassion are
essential in the throes of
war"
