Danjuma: The Making Of A General By Lindsay Barrett. First Print Paperback published in 1980.

Written by the prominent Jamaican-born Nigerian author, poet, and journalist Lindsay Barrett, Danjuma: The Making of a General is the authorised profile of Lieutenant General Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma, a major Nigerian military and political figure who served as the Chief of Army Staff. The book provides a useful insight into Danjuma's life, tracing his military career, his role during the Nigerian Civil War, and his rise to prominence in the Nigerian military. Because Danjuma cooperated directly with Barrett for the project, it remains a primary and frequently referenced source for historical accounts of his life and Nigeria's political history.
