Synopsis
The format of None but Ourselves comprises short extracts taken from a series of interviews conducted by the author in 1980. These are thematically organized, with a certain amount of linking explanatory comment from the author plus some scholarly and highly informative footnotes, and are skilfully juxtaposed alongside some truly stunning visual material-photographs, settler and guerrilla songs, poems, broadcast texts and reproductions of posters, newspapers, cartoons, confidential memoranda, etc. The result is highly effective; the people do indeed speak for themselves.
