von Konrat, Georg Passport to Truth
Star 39603/W.H. Allen & Co. 1977 0 352 39603 2 / 9780352396037 1st Star edition Paperback Good to Very Good
Originally published in hardcover in 1972. "Newly appointed to the Ovamboland hydro-electric station, Georg von Konrat and his eight-year-old daughter were plunged into an area of the world largely shrounded in secrecy--black South Africa. Within hours of his arrival, the everyday atrocities and brutalities forced themselves onto von Konrat's awareness. With no specific political leanings, his job brought him into immediate contact with a political system his conscience could not tolerate. Branded as a 'nigger lover', hunted like an animal, obstructed and intimidated by the police and security forces, von Konrat abruptly found himself living a nightmare in which life and death precariously balanced each other. Then, together with his daughter, he made a daring bid for freedom across a country where mortal danger lurked around every corner." 241 pages. Moderate general wear.
