Armed & dangerous: From undercover struggle to freedom

During the years of apartheid rule in South Africa, Ronnie Kasrils worked for the banned ANC, its military wing Umkhonto we Sizwe and the South African Communist Party.

Hunted by the security police, he was described by them as 'Armed and Dangerous'. This is his riveting first-hand account of the tense and dramatic years of the liberation struggle, which are now contrasted so strikingly as a result of the change of power and democratic government.

Originally published in 1993, Kasrils has added eight new chapters and many new photographs for this revised and updated edition. These cover the years from 1994 to the present time where he now serves as South Africa's Deputy Minister of Defence in the new government.
