<p>From DJ: "Bolivar's political career spanned an immense geographical area from the southern border of central America to the northern frontiers of Chile and Argentina, and from the Pacific over the Andes to the Amazonian borders of Brazil and up to the Atlantic and Caribbean coastlines. This work provides the English language reader with an outstanding and concise account of Bolivar. The author pays particular attention to the nature of colonial Latin America, which is discussed in the opening chapter, to Bolivar's ideas and to his relevance to present day Latin America. The general reader who knows only the vague outlines of Bolivar's career will welcome this presentation of his true significance and the student of Latin American history and Society will appreciate the emphasis on the historical and philosophical context. The author, who was born in Venezuela in 1926 is a distinguished author and social scientist who has been General Secretary to the Association of Venezuelan Writers and Professor of Sociology in the Central University of Venezuela. He has been the Venezuelan Ambassador to Ecuador, Brazil and France. He is also a prominent politician and is at present Minister of the Secretariat of the Presidency of the Republic. The Spanish edition of this work was awarded the prize by an international jury of historians in a competition in memory of Simon Bolivar arranged by the Organization of American States in 1972. The author was awarded the National Literature Prize of Venezuela for this and other works in 1973."</p>
