Araguaia

THE MOST COMPLETE AND SURPRISING BOOK ABOUT THE MOST IMPORTANT ORGANIZATION OF THE ARMED RESISTANCE TO THE 1964 COUP. The Araguaia Guerrilla was the largest military event of the armed resistance to the 1964 coup. It began even before AI-5, when dozens of men, women, and party leaders, coming primarily from the major centers of the south, southeast, and northeast, created a fighting force that established itself in the region generically called Araguaia, after the great river that dominates that geography. With the support of local peasants, they developed political work and, later, military action, confronting numerous Army forces sent there to exterminate the resistance. Established in the north of the country, this revolutionary movement was little known at the time, obscured by censorship and isolation. Only now, more than 40 years later, is it gaining the political dimension that deserves it. An experienced and original journalist, Carlos Amorim narrates this campaign, blending his documentary research with testimonies and testimonies, and offering a unique perspective on the love between guerrillas. This book will become a reference for historians and anyone interested in Brazil's recent history.
