Mandela and the General - Paperback

by John Carlin (Author), Oriol Malet (Artist)

Bestselling author: John Carlin in an award-winning British journalist and author whose books have been translated into 18 languages. His New York Times best-seller Playing the Enemy, was the basis for the Clint Eastwood movie Invictus, starring Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon.

Release in Mandela's centennial year: Mandela, a moral and political giant of the 20th century, was born in 1918. This book's release on the centenary year will broaden its appeal outside the graphic novel trade.

Hot genre for a hot topic: The divisions and conflicts rife in South Africa in the time of Mandela are alive and well today. Compellingly rendered in graphic novel form, the book speaks directly into the social unrest of the moment.

Stunning rendition: Compelling full color graphics along with a fast-paced script make this a top-quality book in the genre.
