Some problems with this article about Peter Niesewand:

  • The exact date and place of his birth in 1944 are not recorded, nor anything about his parents. The British Library records him as a Zimbabwean author (ie Rhodesian in 1944), but Time Magazine states he was born in South Africa and was thus able to be threatened with deportation from Rhodesia (as in fact happened in 1973).
  • The cause of his death in 1983 is not stated.
  • The name of his second child is not recorded - Nonie Niesewand was pregnant at the time of his imprisonment (and her second husband, Christopher Ward, is recorded by the WWF of which he is a trustee as having two stepchildren, presumably both by Peter Niesewand). Incidently, Nonie Niesewand is also a journalist but has no entry on Wikipedia yet, nor does Christopher Ward, who edited the UK Daily Express between October 1981 and April 1983.
  • Nonie's leaving Rhodesia with their child/children is not recorded.
  • There is a discrepancy in the year of publication given for Fallback - 1981 is (correctly(?)) given, but the earliest record with ISBN in the British Library catalogue is for 1982.
  • There is very little information about Peter Niesewand's journalism after 1973.
