Hugo Chvezs extraordinary storyin his own wordsHugo Chvez, military officer turned leftwing revolutionary, was one of the most important Latin American leaders of the twentyfirst century. This book tells the story of his life up to his election as president in 1998.Throughout this riveting and historically important account of his early years, Chvezs energy and charisma shine through. As a young man, he awakens gradually to the reality of his countrywhere huge inequalities persist and the majority of citizens live in indescribable povertyand decides to act. He gives a fascinating description of growing up in Barinas, his years in the Military Academy, his longplanned military conspiracythe most significant in the history of Venezuela and perhaps of Latin Americawhich led to his unsuccessful coup attempt of 1992, and eventually to his popular electoral victory in 1998.His collaborator on this book is Ignacio Ramonet, the famous French journalist (and editor for many years of Le Monde diplomatique), who undertook a similar task with Fidel Castro (Fidel Castro: My Life).
