After reading Anderson´s book, I felt that my knowledge about insurgency was about the equivalent of just a few pieces that were part of a big puzzle that Anderson puts together when describing the various factors motivating people to raise arms, and the common points between the various causes served by guerrilla armies in the world. Anderson lived with them; and shares his observations in his book as nothing more than a story teller and, at the end of each chapter, gives a brief analysis.
2) Paperback Book Guerrillas: Journeys in the Insurgent World by Penguin (Non-Classics). Prior to gaining international renown for his definitive biography of Che Guevara and first-hand reporting on the war in Iraq for the New Yorker, Jon Lee Anderson wrote Guerrillas, a pioneering account of five diverse insurgent movements around the world—the mujahedin of Afghanistan, the FMLN of El Salvador, the Karen of Burma, the Polisario of Western Sahara, and a group of young Palestinians fighting against Israel in the Gaza Strip. Making the most of unprecedented, direct access to his subjects, Anderson combines powerful, firsthand storytelling with balanced, penetrating analysis of each situation. A work of phenomenal range, analytical acuity, and human empathy, Guerrillas amply demonstrates why Jon Lee Anderson is one of our most important chroniclers of societies in crisis.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
