Back in January I read this book "The Bolivian Diary" by Che Guevara (the 2006 edition), where he describes his guerilla struggle in Bolivia between November 1966 and October 1967 (last entry on the 7th). Reading this diary gives a good insight into a every day life of a guerilla fighter. Che describes problems with morale and the difficulty of recruiting new fighters especially local peasants.
Introduction is made by Fidel Castro (for the first edition from 1968) and with a preface by Camilo Guevara. At the end there are some appendices with Instructions to urban cadres and 5 communiqués to the Bolivian people that Che put together during the Bolivian struggle.
Makes pretty good reading.
