About this title

Synopsis

Herbstein charts Canon Collins' single-minded campaign to provide material support to those waging the struggle against apartheid. John Collins, Canon of St Paul's Cathedral in London, was the Englishman white South Africans most loved to hate. The organisations founded by Canon Collins, the International Defence and Aid Fund (IDAF) and Christian Action, depended on the work of volunteers across the world. The secrecy with which they operated is why the story of these networks has been virtually unknown until now. North Independent Publishers Group; South HSRC Press

About the Author

Denis Herbstein is a South African born journalist, and former member of the renowned Sunday Times Insight investigation team and wrote about IDAF in The Observer
