The legendary Barbarroja reveals a continental strategy for revolution. Pineiro - Cuba’s shadowy overseer of operations in Latin America and Africa - posthumously unveils Guevara’s strategy for the Latin American revolution. Manuel Pineiro, known as Barbarroja (Red Beard) was a figure of great mystery for decades, collaborating closely with Che Guevara as overseer of Cuban operations in Latin America and Africa. He began public revelations of Che’s plan for the continent in 1997, but died in a car crash shortly afterwards. Now his full revelation is made public for the first time, offering fascinating insights into Guevara’s strategy for Latin America in the 1960s and answering the accusations made by some biographers that Che left Cuba because he was disaffected and that Fidel Castro abandoned Che when the Bolivia mission began to fail.
