Beschreibung

This is a compelling behind-the-scenes account of the extraordinary Castro brothers and the impending dynastic succession of Fidel's younger brother Raul. Brian Latell, the CIA analyst who has followed Castro since the sixties, gives an unprecedented view into Fidel and Raul's remarkable relationship, revealing how they have collaborated in policy making, divided responsibilities, and resolved disagreements for more than forty years--a challenge to the notion that Fidel always acts alone. Latell has had more access to the brothers than anyone else in this country, and his briefs to the CIA informed much of U.S. policy. Based on his knowledge of Raul Castro, Latell makes projections on what kind of leader Raul would be and how the shift in power might influence U.S.-Cuban relations.

Zusammenfassung

1 UNPRECEDENTED ACCESS Latell has had a unique level of access to the Castro brothers because of his role at the CIA. If anything happens to Fidel, Latell will be one of the first people to whom the media goes for comment

2 TIMELY TOPIC The end of the Fidel Castro era is likely to be a turning point in Cuba's history. With the Cuban leader currently in poor health, there is much speculation about what will happen to the country after he has gone - this book will fuel the debate

3 GRIPPING READ Infused with CIA 'tradecraft', the narrative of the book makes this a compelling read

4 MEDIAGENIC, WELL-CONNECTED AUTHOR Throughout his time at the CIA Latell was a common source, both anonymous and cited, for information and opinions on the Castros used in magazine and newspaper articles; he has an extensive media network
