The Thabo Mbeki I Know

Edited by: Sifiso Ndlovu. Edited by: Miranda Strydom. This edited essay collection gathers people who knew Thabo Mbeki across different phases of his life — from his youth and years in exile to his terms as deputy president and president — offering personal recollections alongside critical reassessment of his legacy. The publisher describes it as presenting "insights that challenge the prevailing academic narrative" on Mbeki's presidency, his role as an African statesman, and his impact on South Africa's democratic transition.
