History Will Absolve Me: Fidel Castro: Life and Legacy (Kindle Single)

On trial in Santiago for leading a bloody assault on the cityâ€™s Moncada garrison, young revolutionary leader Fidel Castro uttered a phrase in court that would come to serve as a rallying cry for his 26th of July Movement and his regime thereafter: â€œHistory will absolve me.â€ Despite the fact that his methods resulted in great loss of life on both sides, Castro never wavered in his belief that in the final reckoning his lifeâ€™s work would be vindicatedâ€”his violence necessary in bringing a new government to Cuba and a new political model to the developing world.

For over fifty years, CIA analyst Brian Latell tracked Fidel Castro relentlesslyâ€”getting to know his habits, his fears, and the passions that drove him. In this book, the master spy steps from the shadows to paint a complex and nuanced portrait of the man he came to know better than any other intelligence targetâ€”revealing the mind and motivations of one of the most mercurial, passionate, and dominating leaders of the twentieth century.
