More about the book
The second volume of Nelson Mandela’s memoirs, left unfinished at his death, is now completed and expanded with notes and speeches from his presidency, serving as a poignant sequel to his bestselling memoir. Mandela reflects on his journey, stating, “I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.” He became South Africa's first democratic president in 1994 and stepped down five years later, during which he led a remarkable transformation from a nation divided by colonialism and apartheid to a democracy where all citizens are equal before the law. This work narrates Mandela’s presidency, utilizing his unfinished draft, detailed notes from significant events, and previously unseen archival material. Acclaimed South African author Mandla Langa has undertaken the task of completing this narrative, resulting in a vivid and inspirational account of Mandela’s leadership during a pivotal time, highlighting the challenges of transition and the realization of his vision for a liberated South Africa.
