520 _a"Never before published in English, The Prison Letters of Fidel Castro reveal a man of spectacular ambition and steely determination. A man who never wavered in his confidence that he would one day rule Cuba; who ruthlessly transformed an island famous for sugar, rum, and sin into a player on the world's stage. For those who are baffled by the passion and tenacity of the forty-seven year long battle waged by Fidel Castro against his superpower neighbor, many of the answers lay In these letters." "This is an historic English-Spanish edition of Fidel Castro's letters from the Isle of Pines prison, where he served two years following his attack on a military garrison in Santiago de Cuba in 1953. These revelatory letters - edited by Luis Conte Agilero, the recipient of many of them - are regarded as the most important key to understanding Fidel Castro and his role in the Cuban Revolution." "Even as he confronted his own mortality, Castro sought to control Cuba from the grave - designating his brother, Raul, to succeed him. It is unlikely that history will absolve him, but such was the force of his resolve and personality that his impact on Cuba and the hemisphere will be felt for decades to come."--Jacket.
