A BOOK ABOUT A GREAT MAN
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I met Eddie Daniels as an undergraduate student as I was fortunate to attend his lecture and an intimate dinner hosted by my school's African Studies department. Eddie Daniels is a humble human being with an unmatched dedication for social justice. His story and strength of character are unforgettable. Many of the anti-apartheid leaders have seen hard financial times after their release from Robben Island. Mandela is one exception. Given this, I would encourage you to purchase a new copy of this book if that is at all possible.
Excellent Book!
