This definitive biography of Che Guevara, written by Jon Lee Anderson, offers a deep insight into the revolutionary's life, from his epic dreams of uniting Latin America to his tragic death. Anderson had unprecedented access to the Cuban government's archives and had the cooperation of Che's widow, Aleida March, in addition to unpublished documents, including Che's personal diaries. The book explores key events in Guevara's life, such as the Bay of Pigs invasion and the October Missile Crisis, and presents a complete portrait of one of the most fascinating figures of the 20th century.
