Abstract:This book is the first full-scale political biography of Cabral. Drawing on unpublished sources, interviews in Portugal, Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde it presents the history of the nationalist period in the former Portuguese colony of Guinea. In less than 20 years of active political life (he died in 1973) Cabral led the nationalists to the most complete political and military success ever achieved by an African political mouvement against a colonial power.
