This listing includes two separate stapled booklets. The full title of the first is long: Appearance of Major Fidel Castro Ruz, Prime Minister of the Revolutionary Government and First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba, Analyzing Events in Czechoslovakia, Friday, August 23, 1968, Year of the Heroic Guerrilla. That's a mouthful. The second full title you can see in the photo: Cuba's Revolution: I Saw the People's Victory. This book was written by Joseph North. North worked as a correspondent for The Daily Worker, the Communist newspaper, and its successor, The Daily World, for 45 years. He covered the civil war in Spain in the late 1930's with the Loyalist army and the United States Army's liberation of German concentration camps in the waning days of World War II. While assigned by The Worker in Cuba in 1961 he accompanied the forces of Prime Minister Castro when they repelled the Bay of Pigs invasion. On assignment in Hanoi in 1972 he filed dispatches on the United States's Christmas bombing of the North Vietnamese capital. On the front cover of Cuba's Revolution the previous owner penned the following words: 'This was written the same month as the Revolution probably the first account in the USA.' There is no other writing in this booklet. It runs 23 pages. The binding is a stapled one. It is very solid. All of the pages are nicely tight as are the covers. The booklet is in excellent condition. The pages are very clean. I'm not finding any soiling. I'm not finding any conspicuous creasing. There are no markings and there are no attachments. The binding of Appearance Of Major Fidel Castro is also a stapled one. It too is very solid with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The front cover has what appears to be a few jags of pen or pencil lines near the bottom. The pages are very clean. There are 35 numbered pages followed by an unnumbered photograph. The top corners of the pages have a light crease, the kind created by a light bump, not a sharp placeholding crease. The pages are clean. The previous owner did place red pen lines next to paragraphs of interest, also underlined a dozen phrases or sentences.…

Store description
Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
