“Full from … lively insight and lousid prose” (The Wall Street Journal), an epic, a comprehensive history of Cuba and its complex relations to the United States – was written by one of the world’s leading historians – Cuba’s world’s leading historians.

In 1961, at the height of the Cold War, the United States broke diplomatic relations with Cuba, where an important revolution took power three years ago. For more than half a century, the stand-off continued-through the tenure of the ten American presidents and the fifty years of Fidel Castro’s rule. His death in 2016, and his brother and successor Raul Castro’s retirement in 2021 has raised questions about the future of the country. Meanwhile, the opening of politics -Obama on the island in Washington, unlike Donald Trump’s policy, and Joe Biden’s election has once again made the subject of debate between the two countries.

Now, the award -winning historian Eda Ferler offers a “important” (The Guardian) and Moving Chronicle that demands a new recurrence with the island’s past and its relationship with the United States. Spread over five centuries, Cuba: An American history gives us a front-rich seat because we look at the development of the modern nation, with the dramatic records of victory and colonies, with slavery and freedom, freedom and freedom of freedom and revolutions.

The way Ferler, sometimes surprisingly, often harassed intimacy between the two countries, not only documented the impact of the United States on Cuba, but also in many ways the island has been a recurring appearance in American affairs. This is a story that will provide Americans unexpected insight into the history of their own nation and in doing so, help them imagine a new relationship with Cuba; “The readers will be closed [this] Attractive book with a sense of hope “(The Economist).

In the same period with more than thirty years of research in Cuba, Spain and the United States, the author is filled with stories and characters involved in more than thirty years of research for the island in the same period -it is a surprising and monumental account such as no other.
