Last of a three-part series in which leading South African political figures tell the inside story of how the white minority government conceded power.

The first free election in South Africa, in April 1994, was almost derailed. A military alliance of Chief Buthelezi's Inkatha Freedom Party, Eugene Terre' Blanche's right-wing AWB, and the rulers of some of the tribal mini-states created by the apartheid system geared up for war. The story is told by those involved, including Nelson Mandela and F W de Klerk.

Followed by Talking X's: Dora Bryan on Women of Twilight.
