The book delves into Angola's tumultuous journey post-independence in 1975, marked by a civil war fueled by competing political factions. It highlights the dominance of the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola and its rivals. Central to the narrative is the oil industry, which constitutes over 90 percent of the country's exports. The history of oil exploration, beginning in 1906, culminates in significant discoveries in the 1960s, establishing oil as the cornerstone of Angola's economy, surpassing coffee exports by 1973.
