Through the eyes of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, this work sketches the story of South Africa from 1976 when apartheid opression was at its peak, to the birth of democracy in the 1994 elections and demonstrates how, throughout the struggle, his persistent voice of reason, compassion and faith has contributed to victory over apartheid. The author relives the Sow eto youth rebellion in 1976 and the following difficult years up until 1989, when the country experienced steadily growing resistance to apartheid and the campaign of civil disobedience. It serves as a reminder of the severity of South Africa's social and political problems during this difficult time. the reader shares too, the sense of national euphoria felt upon the release of Nelson Mandela in 1990, tempered by the subsequent confusion and violence of the ensuing transition to democracy. This collection of Desmond Tutu's speeches, letters, sermons remarks is set into historical context.
