Author:Ann Louise Bardach
An incisive and spirited portrait of the twentieth cenutry's wiliest political survivor and his fiefdom, Cuba Confidential is the gripping story of the shattered families and warring personalities that lie at the heart of the forty-three-year standoff between Miami and Havana.
With a decade of firsthand access to the crooks, assassins, and politicians who have made US-Cuban history - from Fidel Castro to the family of Robert Vesco to the inner circles of Jeb Bush - Bardach exposes the ruthless tactics on both sides of the conflict, and the devastating human consequences on both shores.
Excellent
—— Sunday ExpressAs one would expect from a writer of Caroline Moorehead's diligence and acuity, this is an extremely thorough, colourful and pacy biography
—— Sunday TelegraphAn enthralling biography - with an unflinching honesty Martha would have approved of
—— Daily MailSuperbly crafted, engaging and engaged... Martha Gellhorn leaps off the page-marvellous
—— Literary ReviewNot often does a biography make you against the odds fall headlong for its heroine...but Caroline Moorehead's exemplary and exciting account of the Hemingway wife who reported the war like it was sweeps you incisively into a broad-based history of the last century through the eyes of two women, author and subject, each as brilliant as the other but sharply differing in temperament
—— David Hughes , SpectatorNo previous biographer has examined Hitler's devilishness in Kershaw's detail ... his book is so comprehensive, so richly documented and so judicious that it will not soon be superseded
—— Daniel Johnson , Daily TelegraphA riveting narrative ... the text positively crackles with fascinating insights and interesting perceptions ... this is unquestionably an outstanding biography
—— Frank McLynn , Herald
