This classic is now further honored by Isabel Allende's inspiring introduction. All readers interested in great historical, economic, political, and social writing will find a singular analytical achievement, and an overwhelming narrative that makes history speak, unforgettably. An immense gathering of materials is framed with a vigorous style that never falters in its command of themes. Weaving fact and imagery into a rich tapestry, Galeano fuses scientific analysis with the passions of a plundered and suffering people.
