^{Page 16 note 2} The uprising was widely covered at the time by a number of correspondents who were in Luanda for the anticipated arrival there of the Portuguese liner, Santa Maria, hijacked on the high seas by a former Angolan colonial official, Henrique Galvão, who sought to draw attention to the deplorable conditions in Angola.

^{Page 17 note 3} Much of the data cited throughout the article comes from personal interviews. This is especially true of statistics and information on current developments. Unfortunately, one of the requirements for my continuing access to candid and informed sources is that they should not be cited. I have attempted to indicate some of the secondary sources available; but frequently I disagree with the accuracy of certain published reports, between which there is substantial disparity, depending upon whether they rely upon ‘official’ Portuguese reports or ‘official’ nationalist accounts. On this problem, see Mondlane, Eduardo, The Struggle for Mozambique (London, 1969), pp. 140–1Google Scholar. Moreover, Mondlane does not fully acknowledge that both sides intentionally distort virtually all statistical reports of their activities.

^{Page 23 note 2} Published figures on the total military strength of the Portuguese, at home and abroad, also vary considerably. Apparently accepting the information released by the Portuguese Government, the Institute for Strategic Studies in London suggests a total figure which nonPortuguese sources consider more appropriate to the total in Africa alone.
