Long Walk To Freedom

A big book and one that I wish I finished years earlier. The audiobook made completion possible this time and the writing made it pleasurable. Beautifully written (with the help of a ghostwriter, I believe) and well arranged, the autobiography underscored the title. The journey to an apartheid-free SA was indeed long and arduous, which made the achievement all the more extraordinary. This is also an inspiring tale of belief in principles and in man's capacity to change, and Mr Mandela's unshakeable refusal to succumb to hatred is exemplary.
Ps: The narrator of the audiobook is excellent.
