"Rhodesian Adventure" is a book by Mollie Chappell, first published in 1955. The book tells the story of Chappell's experience living in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) in the early 1950s, when it was still a British colony.


Chappell, a young Englishwoman, travels to Rhodesia to visit her brother, who is a farmer there. She falls in love with the country and its people and decides to stay and work on a farm herself. The book is a memoir of her time in Rhodesia, describing her experiences living and working on a farm, as well as her travels and adventures in the country.


Throughout the book, Chappell provides vivid descriptions of the Rhodesian landscape and wildlife, as well as the culture and customs of the local people. She also touches on the political situation in Rhodesia at the time, as the country was on the verge of gaining independence from Britain.


Overall, "Rhodesian Adventure" is a fascinating look at life in Rhodesia in the mid-20th century, and provides insight into the challenges and joys of living in a remote and unfamiliar place.
