Widely viewed as one of the greatest freedom fighters in history, Mandela’s autobiography is a primer in activism, sacrifice, and perseverance. Chronicling his journey from a young boy growing up in rural South Africa, to his election as South Africa’s first African president after spending 27 years in prison, Long Walk to Freedom is nothing short of remarkable. Many of the lesser known aspects of Mandela’s life that are usually glossed over in history books are given proper attention in this memoir. Readers walk away with a clear understanding of what life-long resistance to injustice entails.
