Description
Biography. Fischer was born into one of the most prominent Afrikaner nationalist families, yet came to understand that to be a South African in the fullest sense he had to identify with all of South Africa’s people. A Rhodes Scholar and distinguished lawyer, endowed with gifts of intelligence, charisma, and integrity, he abandoned the temptations of power and prestige to ensure human rights and justice for all. Drawn to communism in order to solve problems of race, he offered revised versions and visions of both. Covering more than one hundred years of South African history, the book ranges from the stories of Fischer and his wife, Molly, to the courtroom drama of South Africa’s great political trials, to the political intrigue of the 1960s and beyond.
Soft Cover, with beautifully inserted boards to make the book feel like a “hardcover” Tight, Clean (except for previous owners name stamped neatly in book) and covered in a protective plastic cover easily removed without damaging the book. Second impression 2002 of the 1993 first Edition. An excellent copy in the original pictorial card wrappers as issued. SEE OUR OWN picture of the book
