- This 242-page book is the fruit of intensive research conducted over 4 years, including 7 months fieldwork in Cuba. The book's scope is uncommonly ambitious: whilst offering challenging new insights into the Cuban revolution of 1959, it also takes readers back to the much-less-studied (but no less significant) revolution of 1933 to offer a more complex, nuanced and provocative analysis of twentieth-century intellectual debate on the island. Many of the primary sources at the heart of the book are housed exclusively in difficult-to-access Cuban archives, are very fragile, and so have been scrutinised and written about only rarely
