Abstract:
"Rory Riordan takes the reader on a long-anticipated and profound journey through the Eastern Cape during the horrors of apartheid in the 1980s. It was there that the apartheid security juggernaut met its Battle of Stalingrad during the uprisings in the townships of Port Elizabeth and Uitenhage in 1985 and 1986. This is the blazing story of how the people's resistance, through the church, through the civic structures and in the underground, won the battle." --Cover
