Even in death,\u003cbr\u003ehe managed to do the impossible: to inspire grief at his passing as well as joyous celebration of his remarkable life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this new edition of Mandela: In Celebration of a Great Life - which includes an additional chapter on Mandela's death and the\u003cbr\u003eevents that followed - award-winning writer Charlene Smith traces the life of a great statesman and tells how Nelson Mandela\u003cbr\u003erepaired the torn heart of a wounded nation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA successful lawyer, Nelson Mandela sacrificed career, family and freedom to pursue an extravagant ideal: a non-racist, non-sexist\u003cbr\u003efuture for a nation apparently determined to remain divided. At his release, after almost three decades in jail, he could have pursued\u003cbr\u003enarrow interests; instead, he publicly embraced reconciliation and social justice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNelson Mandela was determined to free not just black South Africans, but all South Africans, from prejudice. And it was in\u003cbr\u003edaring to do the unexpected, in weathering criticism from friends, in reaching out to enemies and in acknowledging the most\u003cbr\u003ehumble that his greatness was revealed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Charlene+Smith\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eCharlene Smith\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Charlene Smith","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47375711404195,"sku":"9781928213130","price":400.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781928213130_20783c47-1a92-49c2-91ed-0076ff3657af.jpg?v=1776615677","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781928213130","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
