520 |a Will the freedom struggle end in a bloodbath? Nelson Mandela leads a powerful popular movement against structural racism. But the nonviolent struggle for equality and justice is about to spiral into an all-out war that can only end in "the peace of graveyards." As the first post-apartheid elections approach in 1994, with blacks poised to take power, South Africa's whites fear reprisal. Militias claiming 50,000 well-armed former soldiers stand ready to fight to the death. They need someone who can lead and unite them. That man is the former chief of South Africa's military, Constand Viljoen. Mandela knows he can't avert a bloodbath on his own. He will have to count on his archenemy. The two men meet in secret. Can they trust each other? Can they keep their followers and radical fringe elements from acts of violence? The mettle of these two men will determine the future of a nation.
