FRANK ARGOTE-FREYRE is an assistant professor of history at Kean University and works as an activist in the Latino community.
"Balanced, judicious and fluently written, Argote-Freyre's
biography offers an important and long overdue scholarly
reassessment of a crucial figure in Cuban history."
*Publishers Weekly*
"Written in an engaging style and based on solid scholarship, this
work by Argote-Freyre should make us wonder how we have gone this
long without an authoritative treatment of the life and times of
the man second only to Fidel Castro in his importance to
twentieth-century Cuba. A sorely needed contribution."
*Florida International University*
