Simple Cuban Spanish on the Go: Convenient Travel Size

This book can be useful to anyone who plans to travel to Cuba or who needs to speak Spanish with Cubans in other places. This book can also be useful to anyone who simply wants to learn Spanish, as Cuban Spanish only differs from standard Latin American Spanish in terms of some vocabulary. Even though this book can be very useful to tourists, it is not intended to be a tourist phrase book and contains no pictures or exercises. It is also not a dictionary, although it does contain a lot of basic and important vocabulary as well as a glossary of Cuban terms. This book is a collaborative effort by a native of Havana, Cuba (Marlene Herrera) and an experienced Spanish teacher (Dave Luton) and covers the following topics:
