Product Information

The Fall of Che Guevara tells the story for the first time of the United States government's response to Guevara's ill-starred insurgency in Bolivia in 1967. Author Henry Butterfield Ryan argues that Guevara's life must be re-evaluated in light of secret documents recently released specifically for this book by the CIA, the State Department, the Pentagon, and the National Security Archive. This dramatic account of the last days of Che Guevara will appeal to scholars and students of United States foreign policy, Latin American history, military history, and to all those interested in this revolutionary's remarkable life.

Reviews
"Ryan offers a thoughtful critique of both the operational and intelligence-gathering aspects of the U.S. intervention against the Cuban intervention in Bolivia....Ryan enlivens his narrative with vivid portraits of the two American officials who played key parts in the hunt for Guevara....It is a welcome addition to the literature on both Che Guevara and U.S. intervention in Latin America."--The Washington Monthly "The Fall of Che Guevara has the merit of being both original and brief. It consists largely of a trawl through the American archives, in the wake of the Freedom of Information Act, to discover what the various U.S. government agencies really knew, and thought, and did about Guevara."--London Review of Books "Ryan's is a balanced and carefully-documented book and a great read about one of the most fascinating characters of our times. Ryan pretty well destroys the idea that Guevara left Cuba in virtual disgrace because of disagreements with Castro. Guevara remained, and remains today, one of the most honored figures in Cuba's hall of heroes. Soviet pressure may have played some role in Guevara's decision to leave, but clearly his missions to the Congo and then to Bolivia were of tremendous importance in Cuba's foreign policy projections. Guevara would probably have embarked upon them even had there been no disagreements with the Soviets. It is appropriate that this excellent book is published just as Guevara's remains at last have been returned from Bolivia to Cuba."--Wayne S. Smith, Visiting Professor of Latin American Studies at the Johns Hopkins University; formerly a member of the Foreign Service and the State Department's leading expert on Cuba "The enigmatic personality--and persona--of 'Che' will fascinate writers on many different levels for decades to come. But this detailed and comprehensive book is important because, for the first time, the American part in the notorious 1967 capture of Guevara is believably told. You'll be surprised."--Georgie Anne Geyer, syndicated columnist and author of Guerrilla Prince: The Untold Story of Fidel Castro "[A] facinating and well-researched book...[T]his book is a great read for those interested in the ideological and revolutionary challenges to U.S. policy in Latin America in the 1960s, as well as for those interested in the differences in revolutionary strategy between the Cuban school represented by Che Guevara and Fidel Castro and the Soviet school pushed by Moscow and Moscow-affliated communist parties in various countries of Latin America."--Foreign Service Journal "This book is phenomenal."--Felipe Luciano, WLIB, New York "[A] well-written and exhaustively researched book..."--Foreign Affairs "[A]s a behind-the-scenes look into the issues and personalities that shaped U.S. foreign policy for Latin America, especially regarding anti-insurgency, in the late 1960's The Fall of Che Guevara is facinating."--Miami Herald, "Ryan offers a thoughtful critique of both the operational and intelligence-gathering aspects of the U.S. intervention against the Cuban intervention in Bolivia....Ryan enlivens his narrative with vivid portraits of the two American officials who played key parts in the hunt for Guevara....It is a welcome addition to the literature on both Che Guevara and U.S. intervention in Latin America." --The Washington Monthly "The Fall of Che Guevara has the merit of being both original and brief.

Drawing on a wide range of conventional scholarly sources and recently declassified documents, he focuses on the US government's response to Che Guevara during his insurgency in Bolivia in 1966-7. Indeed, his insights into the role of the US in Guevara's capture represent the book's main value ... Butterfield Ryan's comprehensive study firmly puts paid both to the idea that the CIA was Guevara's main opponent and to the myth that it was responsible for his death., "...[a]facinating and well-researched book...this book is a great read for those interested in the ideological and revolutionary challenges to U.S. policy in Latin America in the 1960s, as well as for those interested in the differences in revolutionary strategy between the Cuban schoolrepresented by Che Guevara and Fidel Castro and the Soviet school pushed by Moscow and Moscow-affliated communist parties in various countries of Latin America."--Foreign Service Journal, "The Fall of Che Guevara has the merit of being both original and brief.
