Description: "Translation of Fuga de Canto Grande. Records 1990 interviews conducted by authors with members of the Peruvian Movimiento Revolucionario Túpac Amaru who had escaped from prison only weeks earlier. Skillful narration provides excellent historical background. Flakoll's translation is good, although at times a bit stiff. Dynamism of story makes for compelling reading"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
