A very entertaining read. I expected more talk of revolution, but instead got vivid descriptions of the scenes and people Ernesto and his friend Alberto, as they made their way from Buenos Aires to Chile and up the west coast of South America and on to Caracas, encountered on their trek. Still, there were seeds planted on that trip and comments of the injustices he saw.

I don't know if the tenor of the text was due to the translation or from his original writing, but it was a great story told in a casual, almost modern day tone. Very contemporary. Highly recommended.
