About the Author

One of Time magazine's "icons of the century, " Ernesto Che Guevara was born in Argentina and studied medicine. After meeting Fidel Castro in Mexico, he joined the revolutionary forces that overthrew the Batista dictatorship in Cuba. He later led guerrilla missions to Africa and Bolivia, where he was killed by CIA-backed forces. Camilo Guevara (preface) is 42 years old and is Che Guevara's and Aleida March's eldest son. He has written an insightful preface for this new edition. Fidel Castro led a guerrilla movement in Cuba that overthrew the Batista dictatorship in 1959. Since then, the Cuban president has been the nemesis of ten U.S. administrations. He stepped down in 2007 but has regularly expressed his views on world events and political personalities in his famous "reflections."

Creo que es una excelente fuente de información. Lo único malo, es que uno se queda con mas ansias de seguir leyendo. No se que pasa, pero la juventud de este tiempo solo está en escuchar todas estas porquerías que los ricos nos están vendiendo, en lugar de leer y estar actualizado con informaciones valiosas como éstas. Porque estos ricos tildan al Che y las personas que piensan como él de comunistas, no sabiendo que ellos tenían verdaderos pensamientos cristianos. Porque ningunos de estos oligarcas están viviendo el Evangelio.

Do not exist better way to know someone that read it own history. May have people who do not like Che Guevara; however he was one of the most important people of the 19th century. To me he was a hero; his history is full of great ideas and actions. Patria o Muerte, Venceremos........
