Nelson Mandela's presidential memoir, Dare Not Linger by Mandla Langa

In 1994, Nelson Mandela became the first president of democratic South Africa. Five years later, he stood down. In that time, he and his government wrought the most extraordinary transformation, turning a nation riven by centuries of colonialism and apartheid into a fully functioning democracy in which all South Africa's citizens, black and white, were equal before the law. The book, "Dare Not Linger, The Presidential Years" is the story of Mandela's presidential years, drawing heavily on the memoir he began to write as he prepared to finish his term of office, but was unable to finish. Now, the acclaimed South African writer, Mandla Langa, has completed the task using Mandela's unfinished draft, detailed notes that Mandela made as events were unfolding and a wealth of previously unseen archival material. The author, Mandla Langa joins us in the studio with Verne Harris, Director of Archive and Dialogue at the Nelson Mandela Foundation. For more news, visit: http://www.sabc.co.za/news
