Green cloth stamped in red and gilt, in white dust jacket printed in black and yellow; 310pp; publisher's ads to dust jacket rear panel. Signed by author on title page; ownership inscription of J. W. Fredericks on front free endpaper. Sound, lower front corner heavily bumped, spine sunned: Very Good.

First general history of the ANC, based on personal interviews with key party figures. The ANC was banned in 1960; in 1962, just after Benson completed her research, the Sabotage Act granted the apartheid government greater powers to suppress opposition. This copy from the collection of J. Wayne Fredericks (1917-2004), US Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs from 1961-67. [62108].
