About the Book

At a time when liberal values are under assault in many parts of the world, including the West, THE FIGHT FOR FREEDOM tells a riveting story of triumphs and defeats over 2,500 years, and looks to the future.

The fight to be free - waged by warriors, democrats, politicians, slaves, civil rights leaders, free-thinkers and ordinary people - has always stirred passions. Its heroes include Spartacus, Lincoln and Gandhi, and in modern times Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela.

The enemies have been despots like Stalin and Hitler - but sometimes also religions and ideologies. Surprisingly, even Americans and Europeans, who championed freedom in the past, have recently elected populist leaders caring little for liberal principles.

Concise and accessible, this book tells of a struggle that never ends. Encouragingly, even when liberty is trampled on, freedom fighters have always risen again. This is a heart-warming story of human endeavour that has enriched mankind.
