the authorised portrait

This handsome volume, with more than 400 photographs - including never-before-published material from private collections - is the only authorised biography of arguably the greatest man of our times. Superbly designed, and interspersed with stunning double-spread photographs, it includes extensive interviews with family members, close friends, colleagues and many of the world's leading figures in all walks of life. Written by a team of distinguished writers and interviewers from a shortlist of award-winning journalists, this is fitting tribute to a man whose courage and moral authority have stood as a beacon to a bitterly divided nation - and to the whole world
