A BOOK ABOUT A GREAT MAN

I met Eddie Daniels as an undergraduate student as I was fortunate to attend his lecture and an intimate dinner hosted by my school's African Studies department. Eddie Daniels is a humble human being with an unmatched dedication for social justice. His story and strength of character are unforgettable. Many of the anti-apartheid leaders have seen hard financial times after their release from Robben Island. Mandela is one exception. Given this, I would encourage you to purchase a new copy of this book if that is at all possible.

Excellent Book!

I recently heard Mr. Daniels speak of his experiences, and I must say that I'm still in awe. Whether you're a scholar or just intersted, this is a great book with eye-opening accounts of his life.
