In the decades since his death, the legend of Che Guevara has grown worldwide. Alvaro Vargas Llosa separates myth from reality and shows that Che's ideals re-hashed centralized power--long the major source of suffering and misery for the poor.

With eyewitness accounts, Vargas Llosa sets the record straight regarding Che's murderous legacy, brutally crushing any and all dissent, and concentrating wealth in the hands of an elite.

The Che Guevara Myth and the Future of Liberty further elaborates on attempts by both the left and right to suppress liberty, and examines the Latin American spirit from early indigenous trade to today's enterprising communities overcoming government impediments. In the process, the book points to the real revolution among the poor--the liberation of individuals from the constraints of state power in all spheres.
