Summary: "Then Spoke the Thunder is an amazing tour de force, a classic in its own right. Peter should have immense cause for self-congratulation. Highly regarded for his power of analysis.... it is not difficult to see why he is highly regarded for his terrific pen.... a pen that has brought him close to danger, despair and tragedy. Reading the book may require some effort because of its length, but the reader will not be disappointed, every page along the way."
In what amounts to comparative analyses of these convulsing periods - the intrigues and final phases of British, French and Portuguese administration in Africa, the emergence of nationalist leaders, their overthrow by military juntas, the unpredictability of dictatorships, the decay of institutions and impoverishment of economy and ecology - Peter Enahoro's suspense narrative remains devoid of catechism of sanctity, self-praise and prophylactic prescriptions. --Ako Amadi, Former Advisor, Governance and Natural Resource Management to the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) in Nigeria.
