"The retirement of Fidel Castro turned the world's attention once more towards the island nation of Cuba. Amid the predictions of what its future holds, it is worth taking a moment to consider how Cuba has reached this point. Antoni Kapcia provides this with his incisive history of Cuba since the 1950s." "A fascinating and much-needed examination of a country that has served as an important political symbol and as a diplomatic enigma for much of the twentieth century, Cuba in Revolution is a critical primer for all those interested in Cuba's past - or concerned with its future."--BOOK JACKET.
