Additional Details

the very rare first edition of Nelson Mandela's second publication, a defense of himself and an indictment of the racist white government of South Africa. "I Accuse" is a fragile and elusive work, largely destroyed by the South African government. The title no doubt takes its name from Emile Zola's "J'accuse" an indictment of the French government for anti-Semitism in the case of Alfred Dreyfus (1898).
