Nelson Mandela, one of the most famous freedom fighters in the world, is a powerful symbol of hope for oppressed people everywhere.
This is his story, revised and updated.
Nelson Mandela hardly needs an introduction. However, this powerful biography provides an in-depth look at the man who grew up in a rural village in South Africa under racist apartheid rule--a regime he ultimately helped overthrow.
Denenberg explores the history of South Africa and its often violent struggle for civil rights, while tracing Mandela's role in that history. Lawyer, leader of the African National Congress, political prisoner who spent 26 years in jail, president--no one else has had such enormous influence on his fellow South Africans . . . or his fellow human beings.
The story of Mandela's remarkable life--from his boyhood, his 26-year imprisonment, to his release and visit to the U.S. Shows us how Nelson Mandela has served in South Africa as Dr. Martin Luther King served in the U.S.--Alex Haley.
