Hugo Chavez and the Bolivarian Revolution by Richard Gott
Revealing account of the leader at the forefront of Latin America's socialist revolution - published to commemmorate the 200th anniversary of Venezuelan Independence
A colourful and readable account of Chávez's background and beliefs* Financial Times *
Gott is always an interesting, well-informed, and engaging writer. * Foreign Affairs *
Chávez, as Richard Gott's readable profile makes clear, is no ordinary caudillo. * Times Higher Education Supplement *
Gott is, if nothing else, a true believer of the revolutionary process in Latin America and brings his own sense of moral indignation every time he mentions the United States. It is worth reading a text that is so ideological yet effectively explains how many people in the upper ranks of the Chávez government perceive the world around them. -- Center for Strategic and International Studies
