Description de l’éditeur
The autobiography of global human rights icon Nelson Mandela is "riveting . . . both a brilliant description of a diabolical system and a testament to the power of the spirit to transcend it" (Washington Post).
Nelson Mandela was one of the great moral and political leaders of his time: an international hero whose lifelong dedication to the fight against racial oppression in South Africa won him the Nobel Peace Prize and the presidency of his country. After his triumphant release in 1990 from more than a quarter-century of imprisonment, Mandela was at the center of the most compelling and inspiring political drama in the world. As president of the African National Congress and head of South Africa's antiapartheid movement, he was instrumental in moving the nation toward multiracial government and majority rule. He is still revered everywhere as a vital force in the fight for human rights and racial equality.
Long Walk to Freedom is his moving and exhilarating autobiography, destined to take its place among the finest memoirs of history's greatest figures. Here for the first time, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela told the extraordinary story of his life -- an epic of struggle, setback, renewed hope, and ultimate triumph.
The book that inspired the major motion picture Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.

Captivatingly Touching
I must admit when I first bought this audiobook I did not know much about Mr. Mandela or what he’d gone through but this much I can say now. I know and appreciate the great, difficult, and life long commitment Mr. Mandela made to the people of South Africa. I also find it heartening to know that others like myself for whom the cause of humanity and humanitarianism is one which they feel and know in the depths of their being is one is that is not only noble but worthwhile regardless of what form that might take. Rest In Peace Mr. Mandela and know that you’re tireless efforts will never be forgotten and that they will forever inspire those who fight, struggle, and sacrifice so others may fulfill their potential regardless of what boundaries have been erected to deny them that prospect.
