Hugo Chavez: Oil, Politics, and The Challenge to the United States By Nikolas Kozloff. Palgrave MacMillan. August 2006.
This is the riveting and frightening story of ambitious, tempestuous and avowed anti-American Hugo Chávez, who is making waves through South America. Ex-paratrooper, outspoken socialist, and brash personality, Chávez is known for his stance against big business, fearless threats to the Bush administration, social reforms that have violently polarized his country, and claims that he will soon unite South America.
