No Easy Walk to Freedom

This updated edition of Mandela's 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. The book explores the history of South Africa and it's often violent struggle for civil rights, while tracing Mandela's role in that history. Denenberg, a lawyer and former news correspondent, exposes the myths surrounding Mandela's life and legacy, while illuminating his tremendous influence on all humanity.
