Summary
This is a story of a Marungu, as the white tribe is termed by the Shona, who’s ancestry go back in Africa six generations, brought up in Rhodesia, then left in 1964 at 18 yrs old to join the Queen’s Royal Navy. He was asked to leave when UDI was declared, Ian Smith’s Unilateral Declaration of Independence, when all Rhodesians in the British armed forces were now regarded as potential rebels by Harold Wilson’s government of the day.
After pursuing his engineering degree at Bristol University, he finally returned driving across the African continent in a Land Rover, which led him into starting up a safari operation on Fothergill Island on Lake Kariba, bringing up his family through those turbulent years of the ‘70s. His name is Rob Fynn.
