520    Gringo charts two journeys, both of which began a decade 
       ago. The first is the sweeping transformation of Latin 
       American politics that started with Hugo Chávez's 
       inauguration as president of Venezuela in 1999. In that 
       same year, an 18-year-old Chesa Boudin leaves his middle-
       class Chicago life and arrives in Guatemala. He finds a 
       world where disparities of wealth are even more pronounced
       and where social change is not confined to classroom or 
       dinner-table conversations, but instead takes place in the
       streets. While a new generation of progressive Latin 
       American leaders rises to power, Boudin crisscrosses 27 
       countries. He witnesses the economic crisis in Buenos 
       Aires; works inside Chávez's palace in Caracas; watches 
       protesters battling police on September 11, 2001, in 
       Santiago; descends into ancient silver mines in Potosí; 
       and travels steerage on a riverboat along the length of 
       the Amazon. Including incisive analysis and deep humanity,
       Boudin's account of this historic period is revelatory.--
