Tracing the life of one of the legendary characters of modern times, this book explores the man and the myth through his early life, the Cuban campaign which overthrew the Batista dictatorship, the revolution in the streets of Havana, Guevara's days as diplomat on the world stage and his eventual return to the guerrilla life and execution in the jungles of Bolivia.
With a wealth of rare pictures the book examines the legend and icon against the equally remarkable history of the real man.
