Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 11
The Cuban Missile Crisis was perhaps the most dramatic and dangerous period of the Cold War. What's less well known is that the city of Miami, mere miles away, was a pivotal, though less well known, part of Cold War history. With its population of Communist exiles from Cuba, its strategic value for military operations, and its lax business laws, Miami was an ideal environment for espionage. Covert City tells the history of how the entire city of Miami was constructed in the image of the US-Cuba rivalry.

American Propaganda
Revisado: 03-07-25
(This is probably not a great review, but then this is not a great book, so…). As somebody looking in from the outside, this appears to be little more than American propaganda. But it's interesting how impossible it appears to be for the authors to imagine that there might be others in the world who truly believe that Castro was in the right (they call some Cubans who chose to stay behind and supported Castro 'brainwashed' at one point, blithely oblivious that readers might think similarly about them).
