Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"On Captivity promises to make accessible to a wide readership an important first-person account: a witness to an extraordinary period in Cuban history."--Louis A. P rez Jr., author of Cuba: Between Reform and Revolution "This is a book you can't put down. The translation is impeccable and reads fluidly. If I were teaching a class on the Cuban Revolution or the Spanish- American War (or a component of a class on either subject), I would want to assign this book. It is a fine primary source for undergraduates. It is not only gripping, but also offers a novel perspective on those episodes, a perspective far removed from the classical military and political ones." --Rafe Blaufarb, author of Bonapartists in the Borderlands: French Exiles and Refugees on the Gulf Coast, 1815-1835

Reseña del editor:
