Additional Information
The last white parliament is a moving and extraordinary book. Frederik van Zyl Slabbert, politician an patriot, writes candidly of his country, its politics and its plight.
This not just a political book. It is an intensely personal account of how Dr. Slabbert came to reject the brand of Nasionalism so many of his fellow Afrikaners embrace. He tells the story of how he stumbled into politics and became house-trained. He examines his years in Parliament and the events of his times, focusing on the advent of the new tri-cameral Parliament and the white folly of black exclusion from this Parliament. He explores what can be done to rectify this and concludes with a succinct chapter on the future, which, in Paul Valerys words, is not what it used to be.
