Opposite Mandela: Encounters with South Africa’s Icon – Tony Leon

Description

“Opposite Mandela relates the untold stories of how South Africa’s first democratic president related to his political opponents. Leon served as leader of the Democratic Party during Mandela’s presidency. Although they clashed, sometimes fiercely, on great issues of the day, Leon enjoyed an unusually warm relationship with Mandela and had direct access to the president’s office. In this first-hand account, he relates some of the more consequential moments of those momentous times in South Africa’s history-in-the-making through the lens of the opposition.”
