Product Description Guevara, Ernesto Review Episodes Of The Cuban Revolutionary War, 1965-58 is a firsthand account of the military battles and political campaigns that culminated in the January 1959 mass armed insurrection that overthrew the U. S. -backed Batista dictatorship. Episodes Of The Cuban Revolutionary War, 1965-58 shows how Che Guevara and other Rebel Army combatants were transformed by their experiences into leaders of the working people in Cuba. Written with clarity and humor, Guevara explains how the revolution's social program emerged out of class-struggle experience by workers and peasants themselves, and how the Rebel Army and July 26 Movement grew into a revolutionary force capable of leading millions to carry through a socialist revolution in the years after the 1959 victory. Guevara's complete and unabridged Episodes Of The Cuban Revolutionary War, 1965-58 appears in this Pathfinder Press edition in English for the first time. This edition also contains letters and other documents written by Guevara during the war. With Cuba coming back into the news with stories of tragedy and deprivation, Guevara's writings will once again remind the reading public that this revolution had compelling cause in its inception and will help to explain its durability in the face of overwhelming difficulties. -- Midwest Book Review
