Cuba

On April 21, 1960, Herbert Matthews, a member of the editorial board of The New York Times, told the American Society of Newspaper Editors: "In my thirty years on The New York Times I have never seen a big story so misunderstood, so badly handled and so misinterpreted as the Cuban revolution."
Mr. Matthews was not exaggerating. Because the American press, radio, and TV have fallen down so badly on their job, the American people have a completely distorted idea of what has been happening in Cuba.
This book aims to set the record straight. It is an attempt to combine the methods of journalism and scholarship to present a rounded analysis of one of the most original and important social transformations of our time.

MONTHLY REVIEW
An independent socialist magazine devoted to analyzing the most significant trends in domestic and foreign affairs.
"Clarity about the aims and problems of socialism is of greatest significance in our age of transition. Since, under present circumstances, free and unhindered discussion of these problems has come under a powerful taboo, I consider the founding of this magazine to be an important public service."
PROFESSOR ALBERT EINSTEIN
in his article "Why Socialism?" in Vol. No. 1.
