Cuito Cuanavale, a battle that turned the course of history

This book is not intended to be the biography of a man or an outstanding military man, but rather the narrative of one of the many sons of this Angolan people who was faced with the dilemma of serving his country or, as would also be normal, staying with his people, ploughing the land and feeding his family, and who, out of the clarity of duty opted for the first, so difficult and risky, but which praises the altar of the homeland, of his homeland. The text focuses on the first-hand testimony of one of the most prominent actors of the actions of Cuito Cuanavale. He narrates his experiences in a diaphanous and simple way, as was his own life, in which appears the commitment with his time and his country; testimony that goes equipped to the recreation of a singular human experience, if we take into account that the war is a phenomenon that sometimes puts people in a state of limit and forces them to face situations not even imagined; even for those who are outside the battlefield, who lead and are responsible for the lives of many people, the triumphs, but also the defeats.
