Summary

Prior to gaining international renown for his definitive biography of Che Guevara and first-hand reporting on the war in Iraq for the New Yorker, Jon Lee Anderson wrote Guerrillas, a pioneering account of five diverse insurgent movements around the world—the mujahedin of Afghanistan, the FMLN of El Salvador, the Karen of Burma, the Polisario of Western Sahara, and a group of young Palestinians fighting against Israel in the Gaza Strip. Making the most of unprecedented, direct access to his subjects, Anderson combines powerful, firsthand storytelling with balanced, penetrating analysis of each situation. A work of phenomenal range, analytical acuity, and human empathy, Guerrillasamply demonstrates why Jon Lee Anderson is one of our most important chroniclers of societies in crisis.

Author Biography

Jon Lee Anderson is the author of Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life, The Lion-'s Grave: Dispatches from Afghanistan, and, with his brother Scott Anderson, War Zones and Inside the League. Anderson is a regular contributor to the New Yorker.
