Summary: this new look at the history of Cuba illuminates the island's entire revolutionary past as well as the most recent decades of the castro regime events in fidel Castro's island nation often command international attention and just as often inspire controversy. Impassioned debate over situations as diverse as the cuban missile crisis and the elian gonzales affair is characteristic not only of modern times but of centuries of cuban history. In this concise and up-to-date book, british journalist richard gott casts a fresh eye on the history of the caribbean island from its pre-columbian origins to the present day. He provides a european perspective on a country that is perhaps too frequently seen solely from the american point of view.
