Jan Heunis, son of constitutional development minister Chris
Heunis, was born into the National Party. As a law graduate from
the University of Stellenbosch, where he served on the Student
Representative Council for the NP, he joined the Department of
Foreign Affairs as a legal adviser. He swiftly moved up the ranks
and subsequently became Chief State Law Adviser in the State
President's Office. In this title of witness, Heunis reveals the
inside story of some of the most dramatic historic moments during
the final years of white rule. These include the signing of the
Nkomati Accord with Mozambique, PW Botha's infamous Rubicon speech
and his later resignation, and how the National Party were
outwitted during negotiations with the ANC. Heunis describes the
actions of such figures as PW Botha, Pik Botha, FW de Klerk, Kobie
Coetsee, Denis Worrall, Hernus Kriel, Roelf Meyer and of course his
father Chris Heunis. Heunis looks back on a remarkable period of
South Africa's history, and in doing so paints a vivid portrait of
the inner sanctum of a political party during its last decade of
rule.
