Product Description
The author, Jacobo Timerman was a passionate advocate of human rights and social justice and as a Argentine newspaper publisher he constantly attacked the Argentine government, the military, the secret police, terrorist gangs, and questioned how 20,000 to 30,000 Argentines could simply disappeared without a trace. And then in April 1977, Timerman himself was arrested by an extremist factor of the army. He was held without charges for 30 months and barously tortured and interrogated. This is his horrifying story of his arrest, imprisonment, interrogation, and torture, before a worldwide campaign won him his freedom in the fall of 1979. A riveting, chillingly shocking account.
