South African President Nelson Mandela is credited with writing the book Long Walk to Freedom. Richard Stengel ghostwrote it, and Little Brown & Co. published it in 1994. The book chronicles his childhood, adolescence, schooling, and 27 years in jail. Mandela was labelled a terrorist by the apartheid regime and imprisoned on the infamous Robben Island for his position as a leader of the then-illegal African National Congress (ANC). He eventually gained international acclaim for his role as president in reuniting the country's once-segregated society. The book's last chapters detail his political rise and his hope that the fight against apartheid in South Africa will continue.
