This is an important book for the history of the twentieth century. Setting aside even its substantive content — which is a record of the partisan operations of Guevara’s small unit on Bolivian territory, more precisely in the province of Santa Cruz (which is significant) — this book is a document illustrating the political strategy adopted as the correct strategy by the leaders of the Cuban revolution. It is therefore impossible to avoid reflection on precisely that subject. That is why Fidel Castro, who provided the preface to Guevara’s diary, considered writing it a necessity.
