"For a long time we have wanted to write a history of our revolution ... But the tasks are many, the years go by, and the memory of the insurrection is dissolving in the past. These events have not yet been properly described, events which already belong to the history of the Americas." — Che Guevara From 1956-59, the people of Cuba struggled against immense odds to emerge victorious from years of brutal dictatorship, poverty, and corruption.
