"This book consists of the recollections of men and women who took part in the Ethiopian resistance movement during the Italo-Abyssinian War of 1935-41. Their long, lonely struggle is testament to their courage, determination, faith and national pride. The fighters became known simply as 'Patriots' and these recollections are transcripts of personal interviews with some of their surviving numbers."--BOOK JACKET.
