Description: A signed still-sealed special leather-bound edition of this important work from Archbishop Desmond Tutu (1931 - 26 December 2021), the great South African bishop, theologian, activist and humanitarian, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984. The book was originally released as a trade edition in 1999. 'No Future Without Forgivess : A Personal Overview of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission ' published by Easton Press in Connecticut in March 2009, 1st edition thus, standard modern 8vo, opened copies online indicate the pagination as (xii) + 287 pages. This signed Easton Press production will bear Desmond Tutu's signature to a special publisher page, will be dated in March 2009 and include a 'God Bless You' inscription. The Easton Press CoA should also be within signed by Desmond Tutu and the publisher. In New unread still sealed condition. Full leather binding with gilt design and lettering, all edges gilt, 3 raised bands on the spine, moire endpapers, silk ribbon placemark. No Future Without Forgiveness is a quintessentially humane account of an extraordinary life. Desmond Tutu describes his childhood and coming of age in the apartheid era in South Africa. He examines his reactions on being able to vote for the first time at the age of 62 - and on Nelson Mandela's election, also his feelings on being Archbishop of Cape Town and his award of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984. No Future Without Forgiveness is also his fascinating experience as head of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission. The latter was a pioneering international experiment to expose many of the worst atrocities committed under apartheid, and to rehabilitate the dignity of its victims. Tutu draws important parallels between the Commissioners' approach to the situation in South Africa with other areas of conflict such as Northern Ireland, the Middle East, Rwanda and the Balkans.
