  • Publisher: Unknown

"The most feared man of the old South Africa was, for many, General 'Lang' Hendrik van den Bergh, head of the Security Police and a noted personality among Cold War spies. In South Africa, Van den Bergh reigned terror and this book, by a former member of the Security Police, implicates him in a large number of murders, some sensational to this day. The Tall Assassin is based on facts supplemented by likely scenarios and paints a picture of one man's fanatical war against communism" ... p. 4 of cover.

The Man Who Killed Apartheid: The Life of Dimitri Tsafendas

On 6 September 1966, inside the House of Assembly in Cape Town, Dimitri Tsafendas stabbed to death Hendrik Verwoerd, South Africa’s Prime Minister and so-called “architect of apartheid”. Tsafendas was immediately arrested and before he had even been questioned by the authorities, they declared him a madman without any political motive for the killing. In the Cape Supreme Court, Tsafendas was found unfit to stand trial on the grounds that he suffered from schizophrenia and that he had no political motive for killing Verwoerd. Tsafendas spent the next 28 years in custody, making him the longest-serving detainee in South African history. For most of his incarnation he was subjected to cru...

Due to the synthesis of their noble and confessional identities, the Dutch Catholic nobility in Utrecht and Guelders acted as patrons of their faith and were instrumental for the survival of Catholicism in the Dutch Republic.
