Trade Review
“Learning From Robben Island is an extraordinary selection of Mbeki’s essays written, for the most part, between the late 1970s and mid 1980s…. [It] bears testimony to the endurance of the human spirit, and, in Colin Bundy’s words, ‘marks a victory in the continuing contest between the pen and the sword.’” * The International Journal of African Historical Studies *
“Students of history and politics will find this book a valuable reference…. On top of that, it gives better insight into life on Robben Island, showing that the struggle continued even within prison boundaries.”
