Review
"Richly informative, entertaining and important." -- San Francisco Chronicle
"Genuinely thoughtful...fascinating...an engaging perspective on the man and the world he helped shape." -- Publishers Weekly
"My Life has the feeling of completeness.... Castro's personal investment in this book has also given it a stamp of authority. He has spent considerable time revising the manuscript, fact-checking information with comrades and adding material he felt important to his legacy." -- The Nation
