Publisher Synopsis
"This book shows its author back on top form as a supreme interpreter of Latin America." - The Independent "A colourful and readable account of Chavez's background and beliefs." - Financial Times "Little is known in detail of Chavez's life, career, and ideas. This study ... begins to fill the gaps." - Multicultural Review "Gott is always and interesting, well-informed, and engaging writer. Washington would be wise to pay attention to this account, since Chavez's radical nationalism ... is presumably raising eyebrows in Foggy Bottom and Langley." - Foreign Affairs "Chavez, as Richard Gott's readable profile makes clear, is no ordinary caudillo." - Time Higher Education Supplement "This timely book will be eagerly devoured by all those who wish to understand Latin America's new radicalism." - New Statesman Read more...
