780 pp., maps, illus., paperback, Revised Edition, Johannesburg, 2013

The second edition of the sixth volume in the multivolume documentary history of the struggle to end racial discrimination and achieve democracy in South Africa, revised and updated by Gail Gerhart. The series begins in 1882 and combines narrative with a wealth of primary source materials.

"The second edition of 'From Protest to Challenge' is different in several ways from the first. The three oldest documentary volumes have been reorganised into conventional chapters to make them more user-friendly. All the documentary volumes now contain maps and photographs, as well as more comprehensive indexes than those in the original series." from the preface

"[A] feat of such distinction that it is hard to call to mind a single parallel or precendent." Julius Lewin, TLS
