First South African edition, first printing, inscribed by Tutu on the title page, "Barry, God bless you [cross and signature] 7. 10. 2011 Cape Town", on the occasion of his 80th birthday celebration, held at the Cathedral Church of St. George in Cape Town, with the programme loosely inserted and similarly inscribed "Barry, God bless you [cross and signature] 7. 10. 2011". With a foreword by Bono and introduction by the Dalai Lama, the book provides a richly illustrated biography of Tutu, incorporating interviews with a wide range of figures, building a compelling picture of South Africa's most well-known human rights activists. Tutu was awarded the 1984 Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in resolving and ending apartheid. The book was first published in New Zealand earlier the same year. Quarto. With photograph illustrations throughout. Original pictorial boards. With dust jacket. Minimal bumping to book and jacket extremities; a near-fine copy.
