Pequena biografia
Henry Kyemba (born December 1939) is a Ugandan political figure who held several high positions and finally became Minister of Health during Uganda's rule by Idi Amin. He served in that post from February 1974 until May 1977, when he fled into exile. He is also the author of State of Blood, a 1977 book he wrote after his flight from Uganda that describes Amin's tyrannical rule. [from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Ky...]

Resenhas

The book has a lot of gory brutality of dictatorship. Worse because the dictator lacks a formal education.
There are so many killings reported even if by estimation (150,000) humans.
But it has increased my curiosity of how Idi Amin died and how Uganda was rehabilitated. As well as how it is operating in this new era of computers, smartphones and connectivity.
