- Summary
- "I became engrossed in the search for any written material on Sobukwe and would engage in long conversations about his thoughts, his principles and his life. His intellectual fortitude was something I came to admire unreservedly, and the more I delved into his life story and political journey, the more I became convinced that his story had not been fully told. I took it as my life's mission to accomplish the telling of it and to share with the world the true story of a political colossus, an intellectual giant and a formidable fighter for the freedom of his people.'So wrote Thami Ka Plaatjie about Robert Sobukwe. This volume is the first part of his mission. It is not a biography even though it offers fascinating and significant insights - many hitherto unknown - of Sobukwe's life. Rather, it is a testament to a man of towering intellect, deeply held principles, unwavering courage and unforgettable personal charm, and the authority he continues to exude, even years after his passing"--Back cover
