Drinking with Ghosts: Revisiting Apartheid's Dirty War is a fascinating exploration of the dark corners of South Africa's past by a veteran journalist. Michael Schmidt's revelations move from South Africa's nuclear programme under apartheid to the problems of today's deeply unequal society, tracing the threads of secrecy, privilege and the violence that is needed to maintain it. The book is also a testament to Schmidt's career as a journalist: his dedicated and uncompromising quest to uncover the truth of what he finds shines through on every page.
