Description and Table of Contents

Description

Including never-before-published information on Fidel's extraordinary half-century reign, award-winning journalist Bardach culminates years of fieldwork and countless interviews - including several with Castro himself - to paint a riveting portrait of the man who has controlled the island of Cuba since 1959 - outliving 10 American presidents and scores of assassination attempts. Only recently has Castro been vanquished - and only by his own, failing health. His impending death has ignited furious debate from both allies and enemies who now face a world without him.
