José Martí (1853–1895) was the founding hero of Cuban independence. In all of modern Latin American history, arguably only the “Great Liberator” Simón Bolívar rivals Martí in stature and legacy. Today he is revered by both the Castro regime and the Cuban exile community, whose shared veneration of the “apostle” of freedom has led to his virtual apotheosis as a national saint.

Det var et radikaliseret miljø, hvor gemen kriminalitet og fanatisme gik hånd i hånd med aktivisme. Wilfred Petersen var så uregerlig, at han ikke kunne sættes i bås. På den ene side var han en antitysk modstandsmand og på den anden side sendte han sine folk ud for at jage og afpresse jøder.

Hvem er personen bag den senere så markante statsmand, og hvad er han påvirket af? Anders Fogh Rasmussen giver et meget personligt portræt af sine forældre. Han skriver om at føle sig som en bondeknold på Viborg Katedralskole, men ender alligevel med at indtage talerstolen. Han fortæller om kærligheden til Anne Mette og om at være "weekendfar".
