For anyone (bookworm) who burns with anger at the injustice, oppression and exploitation suffered by the worlds poor, here are three of Ches books from my collection..it took a long time to collect two of these..but all troubles worth while if they inspire you or ignite you in any way..... *The name Che Guevara is synonymous with Latin America. This classic anthology on Latin America shows the Argentine-born revolutionary’s cultural depth, rigorous intellect and intense emotional engagement with a continent and its people. Selected from his family’s personal archives, this book offers the best of Che’s writing: examples of his journalism, essays, speeches, letters and even his poetry, revealing the evolution of an extraordinary mind from that of an impressionable young medical student to the “heroic guerrilla,” brutally assassinated in Bolivia. This anthology of Che Guevaras writing on Latin America is destined to become an instant classic comparable to Eduardo Galeanos Open Veins of Latin America. “I consider my country to be not only Argentina but the entire Americas.” —Ernesto Che Guevara **A new, revised and expanded edition of an Ocean Press classic.This reader is the bestselling, most comprehensive selection of Che Guevaras writings, letters and speeches available in English.

This new, expanded edition features exclusive, unpublished photos taken by the 23-year-old Ernesto on his journey across a continent, and a tender preface by Aleida Guevara, offering an insightful perspective on the man and the icon. A journey, a number of journeys. Ernesto Guevara in search of adventure, Ernesto Guevara in search of America, Ernesto Guevara in search of Che. On this journey of journeys, solitude found solidarity, ‘I’ turned into ‘we’.”--Eduardo Galeano When I read these notes for the first time, I was quite young myself and I immediately identified with this man who narrated his adventures in such a spontaneous manner... To tell you the truth, the more I read, the more I was in love with the boy my father had been.--Aleida Guevara “Our film is about a young man, Che, falling in love with a continent and finding his place in it.” --Walter Salles, director of “The Motorcycle Diaries.” “As his journey progresses, Guevara’s voice seems to deepen, to darken, colored by what he witnesses in his travels. He is still poetic, but now he comments on what he sees, though still poetically, with a new awareness of the social and political ramifications of what’s going on around him.”--January Magazine
