PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Nelson Mandela became the democratically elected, first black president of the republic of South Africa on 27 April 1994.
South Africa's first black President, who personifies the struggle for human rights and racial equality, recounts his life. It is an epic tale with a triumphant ending that would scarcely have been credible just a few years ago: from a traditional Tembu childhood, through political activism, the founding of the African National Congress, life imprisonment for treason and violent conspiracy, 27 years behind bars, to release in 1990 and the first multi-racial elections in 1994. Mandela is clear, eloquent and inspiring in this deeply moving testament to idealism, charity and hope. (Kirkus UK)
