Back Channel to Cuba: the Hidden History of Negotiations Between Washington and Havana by William M. LeoGrande
Requirements: PDF Reader 3.9 MB, 2014
Overview: Challenging the conventional wisdom of perpetual hostility between the United States and Cuba–beyond invasions, covert operations, assassination plots using poison pens and exploding seashells, and a grinding economic embargo–this fascinating book chronicles a surprising, untold history of bilateral efforts toward rapprochement and reconciliation. Since 1959, conflict and aggression have dominated the story of U.S.-Cuban relations. Now, LeoGrande and Kornbluh present a new and increasingly more relevant account. From Kennedy’s offering of an olive branch to Castro after the missile crisis, to Kissinger’s top secret quest for normalization, to Obama’s promise of a "new approach," LeoGrande and Kornbluh reveal a fifty-year record of dialogue and negotiations, both open and furtive, indicating a path toward better relations in the future.
