About the book
Piero Gleijeses investigates Cold War geopolitical conflicts through the lens of Cuba's policies in Angola and Africa. With access to declassified documents and exclusive interviews, the book reveals how Fidel Castro projected influence and power beyond the Americas, while the US sought to contain communist expansion.
A rigorous historical analysis that illuminates a frequently obscure chapter of African history and international relations, showing how decisions made in Havana and Washington shaped destinies across the African continent.
