TREE SHAKER is a very informative and colorful book written by Bill Keller, the Executive Editor of The New York

It tells the story of Nelson Mandela's life -- from childhood to becoming the first black South African president -- and his
impact on South Africa and the world.
This book was very informative; somewhat like a history textbook but with many colorful pictures and interesting story
and dialogues in between the factual parts.
This book is highly recommended for anyone who wants to learn about the life of a man who impacted the world with his
brilliance and determination for black equality among a white supremacist country.
