The General Election of 26 May 1948 resulted in a victory for Dr. Malan's Nationalist Party with a small majority of seats, but a minority vote. 1989 was the forty first year of unbroken Nationalist Party rule.

During this 40-year period, veteran cartoonist Abe Berry recorded in thousands of cartoons, the Nationalist's grip on the country. Act By Act represents a selection of this material, with text providing a background to each cartoon, highlighting the main events of South Africa's political history during the past four decades.... the contentious acts to implement apartheid, the consolidation of power and the monolithic growth.
