Description:
Cuba continues to loom large in U.S. consciousness and politics. Luis, of Cuban descent, provides detailed, clear insight into religion, customs, economy, media, performing arts and creative arts, and cinema. Presented in the context of three interrelated periods in Cuban history - the Colonial, the Republic, and Castro's Revolution - this book explores Cuba's dynamic culture. The contributions of Cubans in exile are included as well. This much-needed resource will give students and other readers an in-depth view of our important island neighbor. -- from back cover.
