Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents 35 years of letters and interviews between the author and Romulo Betancourt, the Venezuelan political leader and two-time president of his country. Beginning with the men's first meeting in 1948, the materials span Betancourt's later career, including two of his periods of exile and his time as Constitutional President. Much of the material centers on events and issues contemporary to the time, but later correspondence and conversations also address Betancourt's early career and provide an overview of the events and ideas that helped shaped Venezuela's politics and government.
