It was his leadership and moral courage above all that helped to deliver a peaceful end to apartheid in South Africa after years of racial division and violence and to establish a fledgling democracy there.\u003cp\u003eMartin Meredith's vivid portrayal of this towering leader was originally acclaimed as “an exemplary work of biography: instructive, illuminating, as well as felicitously written” (\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e), providing “new insights on the man and his time” (\u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/i\u003e). Now Meredith has revisited and significantly updated his biography to incorporate a decade of additional perspective and hindsight on the man and his legacy and to examine how far his hopes for the new South Africa have been realised.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePublished as South Africa celebrates 100 years since its founding and hosts the 2010 World Cup, \u003ci\u003eNelson Mandela\u003c\/i\u003e is the most thorough and up-to-date account available of the life of its most revered hero.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PublicAffairs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47133120004336,"sku":"9781586488666","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781586488666_p0.jpg?v=1763803409","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781586488666","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
