What Reviewers are Saying: “Africa was one of the territories where the Cold War was fought most intensely. It is known that the Cuban government deployed its armies and its intelligence services in this battle during almost thirty years. Sometimes this was done at the request of the Soviets and sometimes following Cuba’s own strategy. What is least known is the confrontation of Cubans against Cubans in this war and the heroic role played by some [Cuban] exiles who intended to stop the conquering spasm of Havana. This book by Frank Villafaña places within the puzzle of history one of the pieces, which was needed in order to understand this long, bloody, and not exempt of valor, episode.” —Carlos Alberto Montaner, vice president, Liberal International “Frank Villafaña has brilliantly captured a critical chapter of Cold War history. One where anti-communist Cuban exiles placed their lives on the line and changed history.” —Armando I. Gonzalez, columnist, El Nuevo Herald “. . . Frank Villafaña’s book fills a void in the history of Africa, Cuba, and the Cold War. And it also tells the story of these men, and the cause of freedom and liberty in Cuba, that drove them to fight another war very far away.” —Dr. Ramon C. Barquin, president of Barquin International # # # Founded in 1962, Transaction has built its reputation for excellence as a social science publisher—with an ever deepening book program and with an outstanding group of series and serials covering the gamut from social policy to international relations.
