Purchase options and add-ons

For more than 50 years America's unrelenting hostility toward the Cuban Revolution has resulted in the development of a siege mentality among island leadership and its citizens. In a vibrant new look at Cuban-American relations, Keith Bolender analyzes the effects this has had on economic, cultural, and political life.

Product description

Review

"Informed and judicious, this thoughtful study lifts the veil from some of the most shameful, and dangerous, episodes of recent American history, at the same time yielding valuable and penetrating insight into Cuban society and its current evolution, and not least into our own."

Noam Chomsky

"An excellent and provocative analysis of US policy to destroy the Cuban revolution and the siege mentality it has produced, on both sides of the Florida Straits. Essential reading for all who want to understand the absurdities of US foreign policy to Cuba and the need to change it. Well documented and clearly argued, this book is a first-rate study of a failed US strategy more than five decades and 11 presidents later."

John M. Kirk, Dalhousie University, Canada

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 November 2013
it gives a very good forensical analysis of the trials of Cuba with plenty of back..up data of an amazing story of survival of a small nation in the face of imperialism..........while the " World" practised a policy of non.intervention
