Long Walk to Freedom
Mandela's commitments towards the oppressed cause--in
defining and achieving a sense of freedom for self,
by trying to gain it for everybody else. How
fortunate are we that Mandela's own words are
available for us to inspire us for all times to come!
Most of this autobiography was written secretly while
Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years on Robben Island
by South Africa's apartheid regime.
