Exploring the history of Southern Rhodesia through the lens of Thomas A. Glover's captivating artwork: From the map of East Africa during the First World War (1916), where Southern Rhodesia was part of the British Empire, to the challenging journeys of settlers from Bulawayo to Dett (1924-1925), depicted in scenes of ploughing through mud, tending a sick baby, making a deal in chickens, and getting stuck in the mud and a bog. Amidst these hardships, the grave of Cecil Rhodes, the British businessman and politician who played a significant role in the region's colonization, stands as a testament to the past. And, in a surprising twist, a UFO sighting adds a touch of mystery to this historical journey.
