Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In fewer than 72 hours of combat in April 1961, Cuba's revolutionary armed forces defeated a U.S.-organized invasion by 1,500 mercenaries. In the process, the Cuban people set an example for workers, farmers, and youth the world over that with political consciousness, class solidarity, courage, and revolutionary leadership, one can stand up to enormous might and seemingly insurmountable odds-and win. "Includes translations of a dozen Cuban primary source documents on the U.S.-backed invasion at the Bay of Pigs. The documents tell a familiar story, but they tell it well. Also contains Jose Ramon Fernandez Alvarez's 1999 testimony about his role leading Cuban troops against the invaders at Playa Giron. Photographs, maps, and charts throughout the book provide a useful supplement to the text."-Hispanic American Historical Review "A varied collection of speeches, communiques and testimonies from the time, by those such as Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, are presented. These well catch the knife-edged political tension and subsequent triumph of the momentous days in April 1961. Using fascinating military maps, photographs and a full chronology of the time, the book provides previously unpublished details surrounding the CIA-backed invasion and the subsequent defeat of the 1,500 US mercenaries at the Bay of Pigs. [Gives] a real feel for the bravery and conviction of the revolutionary Cuban forces, and their willingness to defend the socialist principles of the Revolution at any cost. Provides invaluable inspiration."-An Phoblacht/Republican News Foreword by Jack Barnes, 20-page photo section and other photos, maps, charts, chronology, glossary, further reading, index. April 2001 marks the 40th anniversary of the defeat of the US-organized invasion of Cuba at the Bay of Pigs. This book offers an account of that battle by Jose Ramon Fernandez, field commander of the Cuban forces, as well as speeches by Fidel Castro informing and rallying the Cuban people.
