The people of Cuba struggled against immense odds to emerge victorious from years of brutal dictatorship and poverty in 1959. This is Che Guevara's classic eyewitness account of the transformation of a country and also the transformation of Che himself - from a troop doctor to a revolutionary leader, who would become one of the greatest icons of the 20th century.
Following the phenomenally successful film adaptation of The Motorcycle Diaries, two of Che Guevara's later and most insightful diaries were brought to the big screen in 2008. Directed by Steven Soderbergh and starring Benicio del Toro, Reminiscences of the Cuban Revolutionary War and The Bolivian Diary were released as Guerilla and The Argentine.

"Fascinating glimpse into the Cuban Revolutionary War, told by one of its leaders. Che is a great writer, weaving the overarching themes and goals of their insurgency with stories of daily life in the guerilla band." — Suzanne (5 out of 5 stars)
"Fascinating glimpse into the Cuban Revolutionary War, told by one of its leaders. Che is a great writer, weaving the overarching themes and goals of their insurgency with stories of daily life in the guerilla band."
" It is important to read all sides of a story. I suggest Fidel's spoken autobiography for those interested in Cuba. "
" A fine book giving Che's take on the fight against the Bastissa regime, giving a humanitarian approach to revolutionary ideals. "
" Guter Einblick in den "Alltag" eines Guerilleros, die Spannenden Momente werden gut aufgezeigt, ebenso wie die langen Durststrecken zwischen den Gefechten "
" Didascalico, il racconto emozionante nei temi mi pare raccontato in modo sin troppo freddo e burocratico. "
" I was disappointed that it was not the actual diary, it is still an interesting enough read due to Che's dry humor and tight narrative. The structure is off though and the second half is distinctly falling off. "
" Guevara is surprisingly easy-to-read. The story flows well, and it's very informative. "
" A remarkably honest, non-hagiographic look at young people struggling against incredible odds. Their trust in their ability to improvise was one of their greatest strengths. "
" Communist propaganda at its very best... written by one of the best propaganda machines to come out of the Cuban Revolutionary War... Ernesto 'Che' Guevara. "
" here che recounts what he remembers from the cuban revolutionary war, for posterity's sake. a lot of daring, some cruelty, but mostly just a fantastic story. "
" I wish I could read this in its original language (whatever Che was speaking and writing.) A good read overall. "
" the honesty that shone through was a source of inspiration... "
