Format: Hardcover
An excellent read if you know at least a little about South African History. It's a "who's who" of the inside story of Africa's "Negotiated Revolution" and could count as a "cliff hanger" if we all didn't already know the outcome of the story. But for anyone who would like to know how the worlds most remarkable political transition was pulled off without a bloody coup, who all of the players were, and why one the worlds most brutal and racist governments kept the world's most enigmatic man alive; then this is the read for you.

Format: Paperback
Tomorrow is Another Country is the sequel to the Mind of South Africa. It described the transition from apartheid state to the Rainbow Nation. Allister Sparks is a South African journalist (and is currently teaching at Duke University) who sought to get "the real story" before the actors started to forget. He found collaboration from all sides so everyone would know the sacrifices made by both sides to form the new South Africa.
An excellent balance between being comprehensive and being readable, Tomorrow is Another Country is not a difficult read but not nearly as inspiring as Nelson Mandela's book, Long Walk to Freedom. It does however capture more of the Afrikaaner experience, something Long Walk to Freedom often fails on doing.

" There are many who expect that the new South Africa will be just one more hopeful transition that will soon turn to ashes, that the country will sink into the economic decay and political oppression which seem to be Africa's destiny. I am not one." -Allister Sparks
In Tomorrow is Another Country: The Inside Story of South Africa's Road to Change, Allister Sparks explores the history of South Africa, giving vivid insight and detail from apartheid to non-racial democracy. As a well-known respected reporter and journalist, Sparks has created a riveting story, not only educating people on the upbringing of new South Africa, but also showing a non-biased perspective while providing "behind-the-scenes" information on what was really occurring at such a pivotal time in this nation's history.
Allister Hadon Sparks was born on the tenth of March, 1933, in Cathcart, South Africa. He was the son of H. Montmorency, a farmer, and Bernice Sparks, a nurse. He attended school at Queen's college in South Africa. He was a reporter and editor for various newspapers for a number of years. In 1990, Sparks wrote The Mind of South Africa, a prequel to Tomorrow is Another Country. For his remarkable writing, journaling, and reporting he has been deeply rewarded. His awards include the Pringle Award (1965), Joint International Editor of the Year by World Press Review (1977), Valiant for Truth Media Award by British Order of Christian Unity (1982), Louis M. Lyons award by Nieman Fellows
Sparks has written this book as a positive narrative for South Africa. He is extremely optimistic for the nation and expects it will be a role model for the other countries and nations surrounding it. Having been born and raised in South Africa, Sparks has great pride and hope in his country.

This is an outstanding book with many original and personal accounts of what brought South Africa to a negotiated abandonment of minority rule. Objective and beautifully written.
