Bantu Holomisa: The game changer

By (author): Eric Naki. This authorised biography by journalist Eric Naki follows Bantu Holomisa from a chief's son who chose a military career over university, rising to command the Transkei Defence Force, into a controversial national political figure. After his expulsion from the ANC for refusing to compromise his principles, he founded the United Democratic Movement, which won parliamentary seats within three years — a maverick's story told alongside his complex family and personal life.
