Hugo Chavez
Born on July 28, 1954, Hugo Chavez grew up in a modest riverside house in Sabaneta, Venezuela, the second of six children of politically active educators. As a boy, he developed a passion for baseball and dreamed of becoming a major league pitcher. But after graduating from high school and earning a degree from Venezuela's Military Academy, Chavez's life began to change in radical ways. In 1982, he founded the Bolivian Revolution Movement, and in 1992 launched an unsuccessful coup against then-President Carlos Andres Perez. The failed coup landed Chavez in prison for two years, but he emerged tranformed-bound and determined to shake up the old order in Venezuela, by leading the country in new, contoversial directions. Hugo Chavez: Leader of Venezuela is the story of this prisoner-turned-politician who promises to deepen his country's commitment to a socialist revolution, while also aggressively antagonizing the United States and many leaders around the world.
