"...Truly a majestic book. It drives ahead with a great emotional and intellectual power. The range and depth of Galeano's knowledge is stupendous. His style is superb and fits his perfect grasp of this vast mass of material which at the same time is admirably and competently organized. There is not a minut's down.

This book surpasses any I have ever read on the theme, and it will endure through all the years to come. It is tryly a great book." Carleton Beals.
