DENIS NORMAN was born into an ordinary farming family
in Oxfordshire, England in 1931, and 22 years later he travelled to
Africa to become an assistant on a tobacco farm in Southern
Rhodesia.
Within a few years, he had bought his own farm, and had begun
to rise through the ranks of the country’s agricultural administration.
He was President of the Commercial Farmers’ Union when Robert
Mugabe came to power in 1980 and, with no previous political
affiliations, he was appointed Minister of Agriculture in the inaugural
Zimbabwean government.
His story throws a unique and fascinating light on the political
and economic development of Zimbabwe. His assessment of its
politicians, whether colleagues or adversaries, is candid and acute.
In particular he offers an unusually nuanced and rarely glimpsed
portrait of Mugabe, who, having asked him to leave government
Sfter the 1985 elections, later invited him back to be Minister of
Transport, then Minister of Energy, and finally Minister of Agriculture
again before Norman resigned in 1997.
Written with a fine balance of the personal, the professional
and the political, this memoir offers an observant insider’s view of
the early promise, and subsequent decline, of a newly independent
country finding its way in the world.
Denis Norman faced many difficult situations as a government
minister, but his penchant for focusing on the positive earned him
the nickname, ‘NothingWrong Norman’. His engaging story reflects
his encouraging attitude and he remains hopeful for the future.
‘This is an important book written by someone who was
absolutely central to the events of the early part of the Mugabe
government.5 Nicholas Soames
‘Denis Norman helped steady the ship and prevent turmoil in
Zimbabwe immediately post Independence in 1980. 9
John Laurie
