Summary
"A unique look at complex life of Paz Zamora, President of Bolivia from 1989-93. Traces his life from brush with death as a Catholic priest to his ascent to power in late 1980s. Also provides interesting view of internal dynamics of the Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria (MIR), the party founded and guided into political prominence by Paz Zamora. Unfortunately, final chapters gloss over accusations of Zamora's and MIR's involvement with Bolivian narcotics trafficker, which cost the former president and the party's leadership US entry visas"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
