Chris Hanis assassination in 1993 gave rise to one of South Africas greatest political questions: if he had survived, what impact would he have had on the ANC government?
On the 30th anniversary of his murder by right-wing fanatics, this updated version of the best-selling Hani: A Life Too Short reevaluates his legacy and traces his life from his childhood in rural Transkei to the crisis in the ANC camps in Angola in the 1980s and the heady dawn of South Africas freedom.
Drawing on interviews and the recollections of those who knew him, this vividly written book provides a detailed account of the life of a hero of South Africas liberation, a communist party leader and Umkhonto we Sizwe chief of staff who was both an intellectual and a fighter.
