"Superb . . . Mr. Anderson does a masterly job in evoking Che's complex character, in separating the man from the myth . . ."-- The New York Times Book Review "Excellent . . . admirably honest [and] staggeringly researched . . . It is unlikely that after Anderson's exhaustive contribution, much more will be learned about Guevara."-- Los Angeles Times "[Che's] ideal, that curious mixture of resoluteness and recklessness . . . is brilliantly evoked in Jon Lee Anderson's massive biography which traces, with exacting precision, the avatars of Che's epic life . . . . The portrait is now as complete as it will ever be."-- The Times Literary Supplement (London) "An enduring achievement. It is hard to imagine that any [other biography] will match the volume and detail of research here.... [Guevara's victories and failures, equally spectacular, are part of our common history....Che lives, not only in this book, but in the world." - The Boston Globe, Superb . . .

Synopsis
Acclaimed around the world and a national best-seller, this is the definitive work on Che Guevara, the dashing rebel whose epic dream was to end poverty and injustice in Latin America and the developing world through armed revolution. Jon Lee Anderson's biography traces Che's extraordinary life, from his comfortable Argentine upbringing to the battlefields of the Cuban revolution, from the halls of power in Castro's government to his failed campaign in the Congo and assassination in the Bolivian jungle. Anderson has had unprecedented access to the personal archives maintained by Guevara's widow and carefully guarded Cuban government documents. He has conducted extensive interviews with Che's comrades--some of whom speak here for the first time--and with the CIA men and Bolivian officers who hunted him down. Anderson broke the story of where Guevara's body was buried, which led to the exhumation and state burial of the bones. Many of the details of Che's life have long been cloaked in secrecy and intrigue. Meticulously researched and full of exclusive information, Che Guevara illuminates as never before this mythic figure who embodied the high-water mark of revolutionary communism as a force in history., A New York Times Notable Book of the year.
