About this listen

If you want to discover the remarkable history of an effort that should never have succeeded, then pay attention...

The first two chapters of this audiobook will provide a brief overview to the history of Cuba, giving depth and understanding to how the revolution came to be. After that, it will plunge into the lives of Batista, Castro, and Guevara, and tell the tale of the revolution.

It is a gripping story, the story of an impossible victory by a disadvantaged underdog who should never have won. It's a story about courage in the face of certain failure and utter determination against incredible odds.

The general overview, a good summary of the island’s history. I didn’t want an in depth book. I liked that it started with Columbus’s discovery. I thought it provided a fairly balanced story, not overtly political either.

Concise history that gives an interesting overview of Cuban history focusing on the revolution. It gives a nice outline of the history starting from Spanish colonization stretching in to the years after Castro’s death.

. . . I wouldn't call the book "captivating" history, but it was interesting. I'm a little bit obsessed with Cuba right now and found the historical information enlightening. The lovely citizens of Cuba have endured a lot of brutal regimes over the years. I sure hope that relations between US and Cuba normalize soon. (If we can be friends with a country like Saudi Arabia, we can certainly end the blockade against Cuba, right???)

Interesting history . . .
