Augusto César Sandino: Messiah of Light and Truth

By Marco Aurelio Navarro-Genie

In this provocative biography, Marco Aurelio Navarro-G nie explores the spiritual and political dimensions of Nicaraguan revolutionary Augusto C sar Sandino. Rather than portraying Sandino solely as a nationalist hero, the book reveals his messianic self-image and deep religious convictions. Drawing on rare sources, Navarro-G nie shows how Sandino's blend of mysticism and anti-imperialism shaped his revolutionary mission and legacy. This fresh perspective offers insight into the fusion of faith and politics in Latin American resistance movements.
