Emmelinah

This memoir is based upon the life and times of Emmelinah Sindane, an unexpectedly great long-distance runner from South Africa. It is a celebration of her historic rise from the brutal racism, cruel abuses and abject poverty to an astounding and inspirational wave of successes. The memories of her climb through apartheid's impossible racist and sexist barriers will not likely be forgotten, whether through races named in her honor, or after taking root in the folds of your memory. To be sure, through you, the reader, her character and soul will never die.
