My Command: An Account of the Nigerian Civil War 1967-1970

My Command gives a detailed and vivid account of military operations on all fronts, as well as the response of the international community and the impact of the war on individual lives. Olusegun Obasanjo, in this memoir, tells of this delicate time in the life of Nigeria with honesty and humanity. This book is as relevant now as it was decades ago—one man’s record of our past and a guide for our nation’s present and future leaders and citizens.
