Hunting Che

Praise

“This is the real story—extremely well told—of the unraveling of a guerrilla force and the patient and heroic team work of the men who brought down the iconic myth.”—Enrique Encinosa, author of Unvanquished: Cuba’s Resistance to Fidel Castro

“Weiss and Maurer have done it again…With memorable characters, rich detail and a fast-moving narrative, they bring us deep into the Bolivian jungle – and into a riveting story you will not want to miss.” —

Ames Alexander, award-winning investigative reporter with the Charlotte Observer

“Hunting Che provides a powerful portrait of an iconic revolutionary who fell prey to his own ego and passions and a US blacks ops team hellbent on his capture — and death.”—

Michael Sallah, Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter for The Washington Post

“Veteran journalists Mitch Weiss and Kevin Maurer have tag-teamed on another nail-biter…They shed light on an important—largely misunderstood—operation with fairness, objectivity, and candor.”—Tom Henry, Toledo-based writer and book reviewer

“In history rich detail and action packed chapters, Maurer and Weiss bring to life the story of the Army Special Forces, “Green Berets” as they are popularly know, who were thrown into the jungles of Bolivia to train an underfunded, under-supplied, rag-tag group of farmers into an elite fighting force capable of taking out the elusive Che.”—Forbes

“[Weiss and Maurer’s] documentary research and interviews with numerous principals and witnesses gave them an enormous amount of detailed material with which to turn a slice of hidden history into a vivid, page-turning true tale.”—Steve Paul for The Kansas City Star
