Nelson Mandela won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993, yet he once advocated the violent overthrow of South Africa's government and helped create a guerrilla army to fight apartheid. A child of privilege born into a royal family, he chose a life in the slums of Johannesburg. Mandela is widely seen as a secular saint and a man of unbending integrity, but he has proudly called himself a politician - a pragmatist willing to compromise to achieve his larger goals. Here, in this short-form book, is the story of a man who united a nation and inspired the world.
