Synopsis
This is a new, updated edition of Colin Smith's 1995 biography of the Venezuelan terrorist known as Carlos, who was responsible for many terrible crimes. Carlos - Portrait of a Terrorist is the result of painstaking research and tells the utterly fascinating story of the Venezuelan's transformation from spoilt playboy to 'Carlos the Jackal', once the favourite assassin of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
Revised with new material following Carlos's 2011 conviction by a Paris court for terrorist offences committed in 1982 and 1983, Smith's account blends eyewitness accounts of Carlos in action with the memories of friends, acquaintances and at least one lover. The book has been translated into Spanish, French, German and Finnish.
