During the years of apartheid rule in South Africa, Ronnie Kasrils was actively involved with the banned ANC, its military wing Umkhonto we Sizwe and the South African Communist Party. Hunted by the security police, he was described by them as 'Armed and Dangerous'. This is his riveting first-hand account of the tense and dramatic years of the liberation struggle followed by his role in the first ten years of a democratic South Africa in which he first served as Deputy Defence Minister (1994 to1999) and then as Minister of Water Affairs and Forestry (1999 to 2004). Originally published in 1993, the book was republished in 1998 with eight additional chapters.

He was a guest at Mohammad Ali’s home in Chicago and at the Rumble in the Jungle fight in Kinshasa. Kumalo joined Mandela on his first visit to America as SA president. Kumalo’s life’s work is a visual documentary of a nation’s transformation, but he is also a storyteller of note. His first-person account of historic events and private moments is filled with humor and compassion. An extraordinary and gripping eyewitness account, featuring amongst others: · Nelson Mandela and his family · Steve Biko · Desmond Tutu · Helen Joseph · Albertina Sisulu · Nadine Gordimer · Nat Nakasa · Muhammad Ali · Ray Charles · Robert Kennedy · Hugh Masekela and Miriam Makeba · Dizzie Gillespie
