- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Che Guevara waas more than just an icon on a T-shirt, in his time he was a real revolutionary who played a key part in the Cuban revolution and was aiming to overthrow South American dictatorships to free the people.
This book is a translation of the diary that he wrote when he was in Bolivia with a small team of revolutionaries. It is written with daily notes and reports on their progress as they move through the jungle, avoiding the army that is looking for them and talking to the peasants to get them onside.
They have some early success in skirmishes with the army, but as they go on they suffer from health issues and have to keep continually moving. Their small numbers mean that every battle counts, but as the number of men on the government side increases, they start to lose men and the initiative that they had. Before long they are caught and captured.
Takes a while to get going, and in the end isn't too bad as a read. It is full of facts about where they are and their progress, but throughout you get a sense of fear of the men as the net closes. The introduction is by Fidel Castro, and is a bit of a rant. Otherwise it is a reasonable read
