A history of Cuba and its tenuous relationship with the United States
Suchliki (director of the Institute for Cuban and Cuban-American Studies at the U. of Miami) presents the new edition of his stridently anti-Castro textbook on Cuban history. Nearly half of the text focuses on the Castro regime, with some preceding material on Cuba's history as a Spanish colony, its fight for independence, and the years of the Batista dictatorship.
