Soft cover. Zustand: Goed. No Jacket. "Who are the 50 most damaging, deadly and disastrous people in South African history?

From Jan van Riebeeck in 1652 to Julius Malema in 2010 - via Basson, Botha, Shaka and Shaik - 50 People Who Stuffed Up South Africa is filled with the nastiest names to have besmirched our past.
