This account of a man who ultimately distinguished himself from the rest of the elites of his country as someone who would not accept the occupation of Nicaragua and play the role of a lap dog or puppet, explains in a very simple manner the nuances in the socio-political evolution of the Central American country that greatly influenced other struggles in Latin America.In Augusto C. Sandino, we see the development of a legend from humble beginnings whose sense of justice made him to go through an epic journey of resistance to the oppressive forces in his country. Even though his betrayal and assassination were traumatic to those who saw him as the beacon of hope in an unfair Western Hemisphere, the political lethargy was short-lived as his legacy sparked off a liberation fervor that transformed the political landscape in Latin America.
