Summary

"In 1994, Nelson Mandela became the first president of a democratic South Africa. From the outset, he was committed to serving only a single five-year term. During his presidency, he and his government ensured that all of South Africa's citizens became equal before the law, and he laid the foundation for turning a country riven by centuries of colonialism and apartheid into a fully functioning democracy. Drawing heavily on the memoir Mandela began to write as he prepared to leave office, Dare Not Linger is the story of those presidential years"--Back cover
