Chris Hani (Jacana Pocket Biography)

Paperback. English. Jacana. 2014. NEW.

Chris Hani is one of the most iconic black leaders in South Africa's recent history. His assassination in 1993 by far-right wingers threatened to upset the negotiations process and required Mandela's televised address to the nation to calm tempers. This short biography brings out his role in MK and in the politics of the early 1990s, and is written by a distinguished historian who met Hani in exile in Lusaka.
