Description

Zelda la Grange grew up in South Africa as a white Afrikaner. Yet just a few years after the end of Apartheid she would become Nelson Mandela's most trusted and loyal assistant. Here Zelda pays tribute to the man who taught her that every one of us, whoever we are, has the power to change. 'Extraordinary . . . few spent as much time with him or loved him as deeply.' Helen Rumbelow, The Times 'Intriguing, valuable, heartbreaking . . . She understands Mandela, quite simply, as her saviour.' Mark Gevisser,Guardian 'Uplifting . . . charming, occasionally faintly indiscreet, but always reverent.' Stephen Robinson, Sunday Times 'Zelda la Grange recounts her remarkable life at the right hand of the man we both knew and loved . . . an important reminder of the lessons Madiba taught us all.' President Bill Clinton
