The Che Guevara Reader by David Deutschmann

Selected writings-speeches, essays, and letters-by one of the most widely known guerilla fighters, political theorists, and organizers, Che Guevara.

Widely revered as a true revolutionary, this collection of writings from Ernesto Che Guevara highlight his principled politics and praxis in the fight against capitalism and US imperialism. Incisive speeches, critical essays, and personal letters not only serve as a primer of the Cuban revolutionary movement, but also analyze the importance of practicing international solidarity, reflect on violent resistance, and explicate the dangerous failures of capitalism.

Accompanied by an extensive bibliography of Guevara's writing, a timeline of his life, and an all-encompassing glossary of individuals, organizations, and publications, the Che Guevara Reader provides insights into the historical, political, and cultural context for Guevara's radicalization. From some of his most famous speeches such as "Create Two, Three, Many Vietnams" to intimate, personal letters addressed to comrades around the world and his own children, this book extends Che's legacy and paints a stunning picture of a revolutionary struggling for a better world.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna nació en Rosario, Argentina el 14 de
junio de 1928. Como estudiante de medicina en Buenos Aires y después de graduarse como doctor, viajo a lo largo de Latinoamérica. Mientras vivía en Guatemala en 1954 --entonces bajo el gobierno electo de Jacobo Árbenz-- se involucro en la actividad política ahí y presencio el derrocamiento de ese gobierno por una operación militar organizada por la CIA. Luego de la victoria de los rebeldes el 1 de enero de 1959, Guevara se volvió en líder principal del nuevo gobierno revolucionario. En septiembre de 1959 fue nombrado director del Departamento de Industrialización del Instituto Nacional de Reforma Agraria; en noviembre de 1959 se volvió presidente del Banco Nacional; y en
febrero de 1961 se volvió Ministro de Industrias. También fue una figura central de la organización política que en 1965 se volvió el Partido Comunista de Cuba.
