Rabble-Rouser For Peace by Allen John

Tells the story of how a boy from South Africa's poverty-stricken black townships became one of the world's best-known religious figures. This work includes details of secret files of the apartheid government, how the Nobel Peace Prize was actually won by Tutu, the truth about his relationship with F W de Klerk, and more.
First working as a journalist in South Africa, and then as Tutu's Press Secretary, John Allen was invited to join the Truth and Reconciliation Commission as Director of Communications in 1995. Next he was aide to Tutu when the Archbishop taught in Atlanta for two years. Thus he has had a unique opportunity to observe his subject at first hand and is being given complete access to the Archbishop's personal and public files. He lives in South Africa.
