by Fidel Castro
"[The editors] have done an admirable, even heroic, job of editing and excerpting this reader [which] serves a purpose for both historians and politicos."--Foreword Reviews
Gabriel García Márquez described Fidel Castro as the "master of the spoken word." After leading an audacious revolutionary movement on the tiny island of Cuba, Fidel Castro became a prominent spokesperson of the anticolonial struggle and a penetrating political thinker and leader on the world stage. Surviving numerous assassination attempts and outlasting eleven US administrations, Castro lived to see Washington finally acknowledge the futility of the aggressive policy adopted against Cuba for over fifty years.
Castro was a Cuban politician, one of the primary leaders of the Cuban Revolution, the Prime Minister of Cuba from February 1959 to December 1976, and then the President of the Council of State of Cuba until his resignation from the office in February 2008. - [Wikipedia][1] [1]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fidel_Castro
