Summary: "This reader presents an outstanding new anthology of the writings, poetry and letters of José Martí - one of the most brilliant and impassioned Latin American intellectuals of the 19th century. Teacher, journalist, revolutionary and poet, José Martí interweaves the threads of Latin American culture and history, fervently condemning the brutality and corruption of the Spanish colonizers as well as the increasingly predatory ambitions of the United States in Latin America. "I have lived in the monster and I know its entrails; my sling is David's," Martí wrote shortly before his death." From back of book.
