In 1964 Ryszard Kapuscinski was appointed by the Polish Press
Agency as its only foreign correspondent, and for the next ten
years he was 'responsible' for fifty countries. He befriended Che
Guevara in Bolivia, Salvador Allende in Chile and Patrice Lumumba
in the Congo. He reported on the fighting that broke out between
Honduras and El Salvador in 1969 around their matches to determine
which one of them would qualify for the 1970 World Cup. By the time
he returned to Poland he had witnessed twenty-seven revolutions and
coups. The Soccer War is Kapuscinski's eyewitness account of some
of the most defining moments in twentieth-century history.
