  A pathbreaking analysis of the relationship between Mandela the myth, and Mandela the historical figure, looking at the way images, stories, and politics have been combined to create the iconic image of Mandela that we know today. 
   
   
   
  Boehmer explores the long trajectory of Mandela's life, explaining first the historical and political context of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa, and then the post-apartheid period of difficult reconciliation, including the shifts and changes in Mandela's reputation since the millennium. 
   
   
   
  This innovative postcolonial reflection takes on board the more critical revisionist literature on Mandela that has emerged since 2015, looking at responses to his death in 2013, and the 2018 commemorations of the 100th anniversary of his birth. 
   
   
   
  The first edition set a trend in scholarship on Mandela by reading his character and achievements through the lens of his influences, interests, and leading ideas. The second edition extends this focus with a far-reaching critical look at meanings of reconciliation and Mandela's ethic of reciprocity.

  This is small copy of introduction of the book: Welcome to the captivating journey through the life and legacy of Geoffrey Chaucer, affectionately known as "The Father of English Literature." In the pages that follow, we will embark on an exploration of a remarkable individual whose influence on the English language and literary tradition is immeasurable. 
  Geoffrey Chaucer lived in a time of great upheaval and transformation, where the English language was evolving, and the literary landscape was being reshaped. His life, spanning from the mid-14th century to the turn of the 15th century, was a tapestry woven with experiences that would eventually birth some of the most enduring works of literature in the English language. 
  This biography seeks to not only chronicle the significant events in Chaucer's life but also to provide insights into the historical and cultural backdrop against which he wrote. From his early days in London to his diplomatic missions across Europe, from the tumultuous era of the Hundred Years' War to the haunting specter of the Black Death, Chaucer's life was intimately connected with the trials and triumphs of his age.

  Lieutenant General James Gavin, commander of the 82nd Airborne Division during WWII, is one of the best-known figures of the war. Beginning as the commander of the 505th Parachute Combat Team that spearheaded the American assault on Sicily in July 1943, Gavin advanced to division command and finally command of US forces in Berlin. He kept a wartime diary that starts in April 1943, as the unit was preparing to go to northern Africa and continues through to his final entry on September 1, 1945, during the occupation of Berlin. 
   
   
   
  During the war years, Gavin came into close contact with virtually all the leading airborne commanders and many others who would advance to the top levels of Army leadership. His diary includes observations on fellow military and political leaders, army operations, and the general's personal life. Gavin was an officer who led by example: on four combat jumps, he was the first man out the door. 
   
   
   
  For decades, Gavin kept the existence of the journal a secret; the general's family discovered it among his belongings after his death. Editor Lewis "Bob" Sorley has worked closely with the Gavin family and the Army Heritage Center to prepare the diary for publication. His edited and annotated version includes a prologue and epilogue to frame the entries within the wider scope of the general's life.
