"Nelson Mandela’s memoir, Long Road to Freedom,
electrified the world in 1994 with the story of a solitary man who, despite
unbelievable hardships, brought down one of the most-despised regimes in
the world. Fifteen years after the publication of that classic work comes
this fully authorized graphic biography, which relays in picture form the
life story of the world’s greatest moral and political
hero—from his boyhood in a small South African village to his growing
political activism with the ANC, his twenty-seven-year incarceration as
prisoner 466/64 on Robbens Island, his dramatic release, and his triumphant
years as president of South Africa. With new interviews, firsthand
accounts, and archival material that has only recently been uncovered,
this visually dramatic biography promises to introduce Mandela’s
gripping story to a whole new generation of readers. " -fra
