For My Country - Testimony of a Freedom Fighter

From Sandi Sijake comes a unique and revelatory memoir of the incredible and largely untold story of the beginnings of MK and the early Pan-African and Soviet efforts to arm and train the new freedom army. From Sudan to Egypt, from Tanganyika to Tashkent, Sijake's extraordinary recall takes the reader on a gripping adventure and a moving reflection on his burning desire to fight for freedom. Equally fascinating is Sijake's account of his time on Robben Island, the personalities from the different liberation groups, SWAPO, PAC, early moves towards negotiations and an account of daily life on the Island.
