Strakke swart-en-wit foto's van NP-leiers soos Malan en sy opvolgers simboliseer vandag 'n stelsel van rasse-diskriminasie wat swart Suid-Afrikaners verneder en onderdruk het. Tog, toe Malan op sy sterwensbed gevra is wat die belangrikste diens was wat hy in sy politieke loopbaan gelewer het, het hy geantwoord: "dat ek my volk kon dien, dat ek my mense kon verenig". Die biografie probeer om lig te werp op di teenstrydigheid - hoe kon 'n man wat opreg daarna gestrewe het om sy volk te verenig en te beskerm ook bygedra het tot 'n politieke bestel waarvan ons vandag steeds die gevolge dra? Die boek stel die leser bekend aan Malan die mens: die skaam, leesgierige jong seun, die afgetrokke intellektueel wat een keer by die huis uit is nog met sy pantoffels aan, die onseker vryer en die denker wat ure geneem het om toesprake vir kerkdienste en later politieke toesprake voor te berei. Dit is 'n biografie van 'n man, maar terselfdertyd ook van 'n volk. Malan se persoonlike en politieke lewe vind plaas teen die opkoms van Afrikaner-nasionalisme in die nadraai van die Anglo-Boereoorlog. Di groeiende beweging moedig hom aan om die kerk te verlaat om redakteur van Die Burger en provinsiale leier van die Nasional Party te word. Die boek ontbloot ook al die binnegevegte en politiekery wat die nasionale Afrikaner-politiek in sy eerste jare gekenmerk het.

Hardcover. English. Bodley Head. 1990. 349pp. In good condition with edgeworn dw. This is the most powerful book about the apartheid era by a white author. Daniel Malan, PM of South Africa 1948, who originated 'apartheid' legislation was Rian Malan's ancestor. After reconstructing his family's 300-year history of pioneering, conquest and exploitation, the book recounts Malan's own experiences, as a journalist, of white/black, black/black and white/white violence and atrocity with an accuracy that is almost too much to bear, precisely because the reader knows that none of it is imaginary. The author's final admission of his own culpability as a white Afrikaner is moving and real. Anyone who wishes to understand the sources of conflict in South Africa should read this book.
