Publisher's Synopsis
Che Guevara's widow remembers a great revolutionary romance tragically cut short by Che's assassination in Bolivia. With great immediacy and poignancy, Aleida recounts their fitful courtship against the backdrop of the Cuban revolutionary war, their marriage at the war's end and the birth of their four children, up through Che's tragic assassination in Bolivia less than ten years later. Featuring excerpts from their letters, nearly one hundred never-before-seen photographs from their private collection, and a moving short story Che wrote for Aleida, here is an intimate look at the man behind the legend and the tenacious, courageous woman who knew him best.
