This biography of Govan Mbeki (1910-2001), activist and
intellectual, goes beyond the narrative details of his long life.
Drawing on lengthy interviews with 'Oom Gov', it analyses his
thinking, expressed in his writings over 50 years. This helps
establish what is distinctive about him: as African nationalist and
as committed Marxist - more than any other leader of the liberation
movement, he sought to link theory and practice, ideas and action.
The biography also explores controversial aspects of Mbeki's
personality and career: his reputation as a hardliner, the personal
and psychological price paid for militancy, and his role in the
tensions within the ANC leadership on Robben Island.
