No Easy Walk to Freedom introduces young readers to one of the most famous freedom fighters in history. His story is a symbol of hope across the world and though Nelson Mandela hardly needs an introduction, this powerful biography provides readers with an in-depth look at the man who grew up in rural South Africa under apartheid rule - a regime he ultimately helped to overthrow. Fully revised and updated for 2014, the author explores the history of South Africa and its often violent struggle for civil rights, while tracing Mandela's role in that history.
