Translation of: Che Guevara : a revolutionary life. Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary:
Gracias a la investigación llevada a cabo por el periodista y reportero Jon Lee Anderson, colaborador del New Yorker, nos acercamos de nuevo a la fascinante figura de Ernesto ±Che Guevara, tan publicitada como, en parte, desconocida: un luchador revolucionario, estratega militar, filósofo social, economista, médico, y amigo y confidente de Fidel Castro. Una vida revolucionaria que arrastra al lector desde las capitales revolucionarias de La Habana y Argel hasta los campos de batalla de Bolivia y el Congo; de los corredores del poder de Moscú y Washington hasta el exilio en el puerto de Miami, México y Guatemala. Jon Lee Anderson es el único biógrafo que ha tenido acceso exclusivo a los archivos del gobierno cubano y ha gozado de la colaboración de la viuda del Che, que nunca había hablado con ningún periodista, además obtuvo documentos inéditos y pudo descubrir un misterio guardado celosamente: el paradero del cuerpo del Che, que luego pudo ser repatriado a Cuba. ±La biografía más rigurosa de Ernesto Che Guevara (Fernando García Mongay, Heraldo de Aragón), Thanks to the investigation carried out by the journalist and reporter Jon Lee Anderson, a contributor to the New Yorker, we once again get closer to the fascinating figure of Ernesto "Che" Guevara, as publicized as, in part, unknown: a revolutionary fighter, strategist military man, social philosopher, economist, doctor, and friend and confidant of Fidel Castro.
