This Penguin Modern Classics edition contains the final, unvarnished journals of the iconic revolutionary. Documenting his 1966–67 attempt to spark a rebellion in the Bolivian jungle, the diary records a small guerrilla force’s struggle against disease, isolation, and pursuit by CIA-backed troops. It is a stark, day-by-day account of radical conviction and a moving memorial to the final days of a revolutionary life.

Ernesto Che Guevara was born into a middle-class family in Argentina in 1928 and trained as a doctor, but became radicalized by the poverty and hunger he witnessed in South America. He played a key role in the Cuban revolution and served in Fidel Castro's government. He then travelled to Congo to support the rebellion there, and finally to Bolivia, where with a small, committed group he initiated a revolutionary movement and was captured and executed by Bolivian and US military forces in 1967.
