Description

Chile y Allende is Fidel Castro's analysis of the Chilean road to socialism in the 1970s. In 1971, Castro spent a month in Chile, addressing public meetings and discussing with President Salvador Allende Cuba's experience in combating US-inspired counterrevolutionary forces. On departure, he handed Allende a rifle. The book includes Castro's speech following the US-sponsored coup by Augusto Pinochet in 1973, in which Allende lost his life.
