A must read on this subject, August 5, 2001
This review is from: The Tupamaro guerrillas (Hardcover)
A brilliant work on a subject in which is very hard to find information. The book will give you an inside look into how the Tupamaros were looked by Uruguayans. It starts by exposing the conditions that triggered the formation of this group and it reveals through several interviews with Uruguayan adults and even kids the influence that they were starting to have in Uruguay. Also, there's a very good interview with a Tupamaro in which he describes the taking of Pando and the escape from "La Carcel de Punta Carretas". Moreover, it describes vividly the torture methods employed by the regime and how it affected the Tupamaros' methods.
As most books in this subject, this book is extremely hard to find. It might require some extra effort and time but believe me is worthy.
Todo Uruguayo tendria que leer este libro ya que describe un muy importante y oscuro momento en nuestra historia.
