Max du Preez brings out new book on Mandela
A fresh, honest overview of the life story and the impact of Nelson Mandela has been compiled by author and columnist, Max du Preez (@MaxduPreez), and published by Penguin for release this month,The Rough Guide to Nelson Mandela. It assesses the influence of his rural, traditional childhood on his later personality and his early years as a revolutionary leader and attempts to explain Mandela's remarkable lack of bitterness and his commitment to reconciliation with the white minority after his release. It claims to give a rare insight into his role during the crucial negotiations period, his term as South Africa's first black president and critically examines his iconic status and impact on the world stage.
