ABOUT
What exactly happened during the Cuban crisis? Cuba almost touched off a nuclear war. Why were such deep political passions aroused in America, and to what extent has Cuba been transformed by Castro's revolution?

Here at last, in this dispassionate study, two young American scholars, sympathetic and immensely knowledgeable, bring these vital events into focus. In the perspective of U.S. Cuban policy since 1898 they show how American relations with Castro began with misunderstanding and ended in unreasoned panic, and how the 'Communist Menace' began as myth and ended as fact.
