More about the book
The book offers a dramatic exploration of Cuba's involvement in Africa from 1959 to 1976, highlighting its clash with U.S. policies. It chronicles Cuba's support for Algerian rebels, the covert conflict in Zaire where Che Guevara led Cuban forces against CIA-backed mercenaries, and the significant deployment of 30,000 Cuban troops to Angola, which thwarted South African advances. Piero Gleijeses presents a fast-paced narrative that reveals the complexities of Cold War dynamics and the geopolitical stakes in Africa during this period.
