To mark the tenth anniversary of the smash-hit
50 People Who Stuffed Up South Africa, the original 50 People team brings you an all-new sequel:
50 People Who F***ed Up South Africa: The Lost Decade.

Whereas it took more than 350 years to come up with the list of shame for the first book, they needed just ten more for the next 50 names, from Shaun Abrahams to Zuma, Zuma and Zuma.
