Che Guevara's legend is unmatched in the modern world. Since his
assassination in 1967 at the age of 39, the Argentine revolutionary
has become an internationally famed icon, as revered as he is
controversial. A Marxist ideologue, he sought to end global
inequality by bringing down the American capitalist empire through
armed guerrilla warfare - and has few rivals in the Cold War era as
an apostle of change. In Che: A Revolutionary Life, Jon Lee
Anderson and Jose Hernandez reveal the man behind the myth,
creating a complex portrait of this passionate idealist. Adapted
from Anderson's masterwork, Che transports us from young Ernesto's
medical school days to the battlefields of the Cuban revolution;
from his place of power alongside Castro to his disastrous sojourn
in the Congo, and his violent end in Bolivia. Through renowned
Mexican artist Jose Hernandez's drawings, we feel the bullets fly
past in Cuba; smell the smoke of Castro's cigars; and scrutinize
the face of the weary guerrilla as he is called 'Comandante' for
the first time. With astonishing precision, colour, and drama, Che
makes us first-hand witnesses to the revolutionary life and times
of this historic figure. Combining Anderson's unprecedented access
and research with Hernandez's emotionally gripping artwork, Che
resurrects the man for a new generation of readers.
