Árbenz, una biografía (Spanish Edition)

Who was Jacobo Árbenz really? Beyond political or ideological considerations, how was he as a person? How did his life unfold? Carlos Sabino offers a masterful biography of this "tragic figure of Latin American history," as Mario Vargas Llosa calls him.

The book provides a vivid and detailed account of Árbenz's childhood, education, military training, romance with Maruca, exile, and struggles with depression, alcoholism, and political defeat.

Through Sabino's writing, we gain insight into the real Árbenz: a complex and troubled man destroyed by his failures and defeats.

The book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the past and present of our America.
