Abstract
Julia Sweig, a Council Fellow and Deputy Director of the Latin America Program at the Council of Foreign Relations, is the first scholar to gain access to the classified archives in Cuba’s Office of Historical Affairs, Castro’s presidential library. These archives house documents that relate to the debates among the leaders of the revolution that overthrew Fulgencio Batista. Sweig, in her myth-shattering book, provides us with new information, new insights and a different and more complete understanding of the revolution that brought Fidel Castro to power.
