John Barnes (6) (1935–)

A very good, easy-to-read, even-handed account of the life of Eva Peron. She was certainly an enigma--darling of the populace, hated by the military, ruthless in getting her own way. It was a good history of Argentina for that time period too.

Good read. Surprising how accurate the musical and the movie were. I never knew enough about her before reading this book to judge the historical details in the performance genres.

Superb. A fascinating review of the life of a fascinating woman.
