An incisive and spirited portrait of the twentieth cenutry's wiliest political survivor and his fiefdom, Cuba Confidential is the gripping story of the shattered families and warring personalities that lie at the heart of the forty-three-year standoff between Miami and Havana.

    There were some interesting elements to this book, but "Tragedy of Cuba" is misleading. Really more a rehash of the Elian Gonzalez story with linkage to the corruption of the Cuban exile community in Miami and the US government officials who needed their voting bloc </p><p>As a story, Cuba Confidential lacked consistency and continuity. Not a worthwhile read, unless you need an Elian refresher 10 years later, or otherwise haven't had enough of the Elian story to last a lifetime.
