"Leadership in conflict is about responsibility, humanity, human cost, loss, resilience and conscience. War to Peace – It's Personal, is my attempt to explain why. Written from the frontlines of the world's most fragile states."
From the vineyards of the Cape to the battlefields of Angola and the birth of South African democracy to conflict zones across the globe — this is the journey of a man shaped by heritage, hardened by war, and driven by purpose.
Chris du Toit traces his Huguenot lineage to 1686, weaving personal history with national narrative. Raised in Worcester, South Africa, he grew from modest beginnings to global service: elite military units, UN peacekeeping and complex security missions across Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.
More than a memoir — a tribute to a promise kept to his wife: to take her places.
