If you like Biographies of great leaders you must read this spectacular book. Thank you Marie Arana for this monster of a book.
This is one of the best biographies that I've read in my life, if not the very best. I am an admitted South America fanatic, but my knowledge about its history was limited to study of the Inca and Brazil before reading this book. Marie Arana (no tilde on the n?) is an amazingly articulate writer in English, although I'm not sure that English is even her first language! I was gripped by her account of Bolivar's early years and development into a revered hero; his determination to liberate the Andean Region from Spain; his success in building and mobilizing troops back and forth across the Andes and perilous regions in between; his personal picadillo's; Bolivar's post-liberation failures to identify effective leaders and governmental structures that could unify populations; and finally, Bolivar's death in isolation. I also enjoyed the Epilogue that explained how society's perception of Bolivar evolved, and how Hugo Chavez made a travesty of Bolivar in Venezuela. Finally, I even enjoyed Arana's fascinating Acknowledgment. I learned so much and would love to read more from this gifted author! Maybe a book about Ernesto "Che" Guevarra?
As a trained historian, I found this book to be informative, well written, engaging and easily digestible.For anyone looking to understand a lot of South American history and some of the underlying factors that continue to shape the region today, this is a good place to start. Having traveled South America extensively and studied some of the more contemporary history, I would say this significantly added to my knowledge and understanding of Latin America.I took one star off because the book was biased towards Bolivar pretty strongly, and the citation of sources was cumbersome and less than you would expect for a good biography. There are no footnotes, only endnotes which are not linked to individual passages in the text but instead to chapters. I have never seen it done like that and it irked me.Still I would recommend the book. It will shed light on so many things.
This was a fantastic read and in depth view of Simon BolÃvar's life and challenges he faced! I've been to Central and South America and wish I would've found this book 5 years ago. Marie has a great style of writing and keeps you engaged from the first chapter. There were no glossing over facts in this book and I appreciate that to the fullest. Due to the fact of so much detail in this book there were many times that I had to read 1 chapter and take a break and come back to the book at other times. The English audience would do well to read this as Marie does a great job in tying in differences between US issues and American (Bolivar's America that is) issues and how dissimilar they really were. A great find and will be recommending this to family and friends.
+For anyone interested in the great Age of Enlightment that was the end of the 18th century--a time that rocked and changed nations across the Americas as they separated from their Mother Countries and the monumental quake that shook the monarchies of Europe, should be fascinated by this eye-opening book. Most people in the north of the Americas were too busy getting their fledgling countries going to notice much what was going on to the south. However, John Quincy Adams and James Monroe here in the U.S. were aware that what was happening in Venezuela and the northern countries of South America was an almost exact parallel to what was going on here in the new United States. From that point on, the paths diverged dramatically. But in the end, the new North American government, busy with its own dealings with Spain, paid no more than superficial attention to the bloody struggles of its southern neighbors.Marie Arana has done a masterful job of bringing to life the leader of that revolution to the south, a man characterized as 'bigger than life' and by Jose Marti, one noted Hispanic writer in the typical flowery rhetoric of the times as, "...of Bolivar you can only speak from mountaintops,or amid thunder and lightning, or with a fistful of freedom in one hand and the corpse of tyranny at your feet." Ms. Arana brings Simon Bolivar down to earth in a highly readable, impressively researched manner. In the process she throws important light on the sometimes puzzling and little understood attitudes and realities of race and social class that still plague the southern continent.For anyone who wishes to understand "Latinos" or "Hispanics" better (reference the growing importance they have right here in the USA), this really is must reading.And, incidentally, the kindle version of this book reads beautifully.
Marie Arana's Bolivar was captivating from beginning to end. As a Mexican-American educator, it was an eye-opening experience for me to read about a man who accomplished so much in his short life. A case has been made for Latinx in the U.S. and their lack of heroes. Here is one we can look to for inspiration!Like all heroes, he comes with many major flaws but we cannot deny his grit, determination, and unyielding will to cast out the Spanish throne from Latin America and create a unified country that would rival any super power at the time. His story also foreshadows the Latin America we know today. You will not be disappointed with Bolivar: American Liberator!
