Description
"The Struggle for freedom in South Africa goes back a long way, to the very founding of the country in 1910. Spearheading that struggle was a remarkable delegation of South Africans of all colours who travelled to London to lobby for a non-racial constitution. Led by Will Schreiner, a famous lawyer, former Cape Prime Minister and brother of the novelist Olive Schreiner, it included some of the greatest African and Coloured leaders of the day, equivalent in stature to the black leaders who helped found the second South Africa in 1994. The discussions in London in 1909 would in fact prove seminal to the founding of the African National Congress."--Back cover
