Book Overview

Richard L. Harris includes in this updated edition of Death of a Revolutionary new revelations about Che's revolutionary legacy and discusses the renewed interest in his revolutionary ideas stimulated by the election of leftist governments throughout Latin America. In response to this growing resurgence of interest in Che's life, a feature film directed by Steven Soderbergh, and several documentaries are scheduled for release in late 2007 and 2008. To commemorate Che's life and death many international conferences and events will be held and his iconic image will be seen repeatedly in the mass media. This new edition of Death of a Revolutionary--hailed as well written, provocative, and fair minded by Choice--contains the latest information on this charismatic and legendary figure and reveals why he is a hero for millions of people around the world.

Death Of A Revolutionary

Death Of A Revolutionary: Che Guevara's Last Mission by Richard L. Harris **** This was the first ever book I ever read about the contraversial yet legendary and insperational leader Che Guevara.

Excellent

An interesting look into the last days of Che's life and times. It is an easy read and any person could pick it up and be enveloped in the story that Che lived. Before Pablo Escobar or Bin Laden the US wanted him and Castro more than anything. This story truly gives the reader what stress and pressure Che was under trying to start a new revolution in South America. Excellent and readable. PCR, BA history
