  　Amazon.co.uk Review

　　The famously taciturn South African president reveals much of

himself in Long Walk to Freedom. A good deal of this autobiography

was written secretly while Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years on

Robben Island by South Africa's apartheid regime. Among the book's

interesting revelati*** is Mandela's ambivalence toward his

lifetime of devotion to public works. It cost him two marriages and

kept him distant from a family life he might otherwise have

cherished. Long Walk to Freedom also discloses a strong and

generous spirit that refused to be broken under the most trying

circumstances--a spirit in which just about everybody can find

something to admire. --Amazon.com

书籍介绍

Within the first parts of the autobiography, Mandela describes his upbringing as a child and adolescent in South Africa, and being connected to the royal Thembu dynasty. His childhood name was Rolihlahla, which is loosely translated as "pulling the branch of a tree," or a euphemism for "troublemaker."

Later in the text, Mandela describes his education at a Thembu college called Clarkebury, and later at the strict Healdtown school, where students were rigorously put in routines. He menti*** his education at the University of Fort Hare, and his practice of law later on.

Within the second part of the book, Mandela introduces political and social ***ects of apartheid in South Africa, and the influences of politicians such as Daniel François Malan who implemented the nadir of African ***s, as he officially commenced the apartheid policies. Mandela joined the African National Congress in 1950 and describes his ***anization of guerrilla tactics and underground ***anizati*** to battle against apartheid.

In 1961, Mandela was convicted for inciting people to strike and leaving the country without a passport and sentenced to five years imprisonment. However, Mandela was shortly thereafter sentenced to life imprisonment for sabotage in what was known as the "Rivonia Trial," by Justice Dr. Quartus de Wet, instead of a possible death sentence. (p. 159)

Mandela describes prison time on Robben Island and Pollsmoor Prison. His 27 year tenure in prison was marked by the cruelty of Afrikaner guards, backbreaking labor, and sleeping in minuscule cells which were nearly uninhabitable. Unlike his biographer Anthony Sampson, Mandela does not accuse the warder James Gregory of fabricating a friendship with his prisoner. Gregory's book Goodbye Bafana discussed Mandela's family life and described Gregory as a close personal friend of Mandela. According to Mandela: The Authorised Biography, Gregory's position was to censor the letters delivered to the future president, and he thereby discovered the details of Mandela's personal life, which he then made money from by means of his book Goodbye Bafana. Mandela c***idered suing Gregory for this breach of trust.[1] In Long Walk to Freedom Mandela remarks of Gregory only that 'I had not known him terribly well, but he knew us, because he had been resp***ible for reviewing our incoming and outgoing mail.' [2]

Later on in his sentence, Mandela met South African president, Frederik Willem de Klerk, and was released from prison in 1990. Unlike his friend Anthony Sampson's account, Mandela's book does not discuss the alleged complicity of de Klerk in the violence of the eighties and nineties, or the role of his ex-wife Winnie Mandela in that bloodshed. Mandela became the South African president in 1994.

Mandela dedicated his book to "my six children, Madiba and Makaziwe (my first daughter) who are now deceased, and to Makgatho, Makaziwe, Zenani and Zindzi, whose *** and love I treasure; to my twenty-one grandchildren and three great-grandchildren who give me great pleasure; and to all my comrades, friends and fellow South Africans whom I serve and whose courage determination and patriotism remain my source of inspiration."

The book won the Alan Paton Award in 1995, and is published in numerous languages, including an Afrikaans translation by Antjie Krog.
