His novel, which is still read and studied in many countries today, is considered the most important work of Spanish literature ever written. The life of this talented writer was like an adventure novel itself: he was a soldier, a tax collector, and even spent some time in jail! Simón Bolívar is known as El Libertador because he freed an enormous territory—an area that today is shared by six South American countries— from the yoke of the Spanish Empire. Palomo Blanco, his horse, and Nevado, his dog, were his faithful companions throughout this difficult and heroic feat.
