"Ernesto Che Guevara was a voyager-and thus a letter writer-for his entire adult life. The letters collected in I Embrace You with All My Revolutionary Fervor: Letters 1947-1967 range from letters home during his Motorcycle Diaries trip, to the long letter to Fidel after the success of the Cuban revolution in early 1959 (from which the book's title comes), from the most personal to the intensely political, revealing someone who not only thought deeply about everything he encountered, but for whom the process of social transformation was a constant companion from his youth until shortly before his death. His letters give us Che the son, the friend, the lover, the guerrilla fighter, the political leader, the philosopher, the poet. Che in these letters is often playful, funny, sometimes sarcastic, and deeply affectionate. His life was short, and these twenty years, from when he was 19 until days before his death, show it was also incredibly rich and full. As his daughter Aleida Guevara, also a doctor like her father, writes, "When you write a speech, you pay attention to the language, the punctuation and so on. But in a letter to a friend or a member of your family, you don't worry about those things. It is you speaking, in your authentic voice. That's what I like about these letters; they show who Che really was and how he thought. This is the true political testimony of my father.""--

Brilliant Marxist leader, recognized for her sharp critique of global capitalism and its drive to war

A new, authorized and revised edition of a classic 1960s text on revolution by Che Guevara.

This is the special movie tie-in edition of Che Guevara's youthful travel diaries to coincide with the fall movie release.

This highly readable and often entertaining account of the Cuban revolution features descriptions of Che's first meeting with Fidel in Mexico; the mythical moment when Che had to choose between a knapsack of medicine and another of ammunition; and the anguished story of the murdered puppy.

This book tells of the last doomed eleven months in the life of one of the most courageous and dedicated revolutionaries of the 20th century. First published in Cuba in 1968, this is a unique account of the guerrilla's lonely fight against armies, mountains, jungles, hunger, disease and death.

The voice of one of history's greatest orators-Fidel Castro-is captured for posterity in a single volume.

Che Guevara's original, unpublished diaries from the guerrilla war in Cuba's Sierra Maestra.

For the first time, Aleida March evokes the memories of her partner, Ernesto Che Guevara. She describes their great romance and life together from the days when they first met as fellow guerrillas in Cuba's revolutionary war up to the tragic moment when she learned of Che's assassination in Bolivia less than a decade later. As Che's widow, Aleida writes with passion and poignancy of their shared political dreams for the future and their family. Never before have readers been offered such an intimate insight into the man behind one of the great political symbols of our time. Includes one hundred intimate photos taken from the private family albums of Che with his children and his wife, including the last photos of Che and Aleida together when Che had disguised himself in preparation for his secret mission to Bolivia. Also includes facsimiles of postcards and letters Che sent to his family from abroad, as well as poems written to Aleida and a moving short story sent from Africa. This book reveals Aleida's own great strength and courage as she came to terms with her private loss while under the international spotlight of millions of others who also mourned the death of a world-famous revolutionary, perhaps comparable to Yoko Ono after the death of John Lennon. She also describes her efforts to raise her four children as ordinary children despite their father's legendary status in Cuba and abroad. Aleida March is currently the director of the Che Guevara Studies Center, Cuba.
