Hannes Wessels was born in Southern Rhodesia, but grew up in Umtali on the Mozambican border. He is part-owner of a lodge on the Zambezi and is keenly interested in all matters relating to African wildlife and conservation. He is the author of the highly-praised 'A Handful of Hard Men: The SAS and the Battle for Rhodesia' (Casemate 2015).
"It is cartainly a significant new contribution to the documentation of Rhodesian history o thank you so much for publishing it." -- David Mitchie PhD "Wessels researched his subject well and the book is a good synthesis of interviews with PK's brother William, his widow Princess Charlotte of Lichtenstein, his friend Lin Mehmel, former Selous Scouts officer commanding Ron Reid Daly, his secretary Marge Bassett and Ian Smith himself" -- Defence Web August 2010-09-22
