This graphic novel is absolutely beautiful. It's a great intro into the world of racism and the end of the apartheid in South Africa. It gives hope especially today. The world needs more men like Nelson Mandela.
I wanted more. This is a very brief, high-level history of the end of apartheid in South Africa, based primarily on an interview the author conducted with General Constand Viljoen. Not a fan of the artwork and I wanted more depth and detail on the events in South Africa in the early 1990s. Longer review on my blog: https://wp.me/pKWKW-51
Thanks to LibraryThing and the publisher for the free copy.
Happy news in my email today. Looking forward to receiving and reading this!

This book fills a gap by covering a crucial time in South Africa leading up to the first free elections in 1994 with the account of General Viljoen, an Afrikaaner who lead an opposition party. The story sheds light on the genius that was Mandela and how he used his knowledge of people and culture to pursue a path that lead to freedom and peace.

There is a giveaway on GR for this book right now.
I read Mandela‘s autobiography, A Long Walk to Freedom, earlier this year &this graphic novel is a great supplemental piece. This takes place after Mandela was released from prison when General Viljoen led white nationalists against the new changes coming about. Eventually they meet which led to the first all S. African elections being held peacefully.
I loved reading this in GN format &highly recommend!
