very good indeed in the original pictorial wrappers as issued. Boldly signed by Tshombe beneath his full length portrait at the beginning of the publication. Moise Kapinda Tshombe (1919-1969) was President of Katanga from 1960-1963. Living in exile in London, he returned to become Prime Minister of the Congo Republic (July 10, 1964 to October 13, 1965). After elections were held, he was forced to flee and went to live in Spain. General Mobutu staged another military coup in November 1965. He placed an absent Tshombe on trial for treason, and Tshombe was condemned to death. In July 1967, Tshombe was kidnapped and taken to Algeria, where he died in prison of a heart attack in 1969 at the age of 49.. The autograph here offered is of the utmost rarity, being in the last three months of Tshombe's public life (the book was published August 1965; Tshombe was out of office in October 1965). Tshombe's autograph is in any case very scarce. Click here for full details of this book, to ask a question or to buy it on-line.
