My book has been fertilized by other books, among which the following deserve a special mention. Uganda Now, by Holger Bernt Hansen and Michael Twaddle, and Lust to Kilclass="underline" The Rise and Fall of Idi Amin, by Joseph Kamau and Andrew Cohen, helped me to deal with the chaotic events which I and many people I knew experienced during the years before and after the fall of Idi Amin. Mahmood Mamdani’s From Citizen to Refugee shed light on the fate of the Indians in Uganda.
