Description
An activist in the African National Congress, Indres Naidoo was arrested following the attempted sabotage of signal box on a remote part of South African railways as a result of an informer in their group. He was sentenced to ten years imprisonment and spent most of these on Robben Island. This is an account of his time as prisoner 885/63, years imbued with the powerful personality of Nelson Mandela, and it reaffirms the ANCs conviction that the struggle against apartheid would be won.
